I really would appreciate some advice asap! It's kind of a long story but I'll try to shorten it up. I've got a little chestnut gelding (Dante'), a palamino mare (Butter) and a yearling paint colt (Scout). Things are getting very tough financially so I gave them to a ranch close to my home. The owner put them all in with her 'zoo' animals; zony, zedonk, mini donkeys, llama and some other minis. My little Dante' was just gelded last fall so he was acting pretty studdy when they all met and just didnt get a long with any of them. I kept going out to check on them and kept seeing kick marks (some open wounds) on Dante' and he was always alone in the woods with his head hanging down. I watched this for a week and finally couldnt stand it any longer. He looked so depressed!! I ended up bringing them all back home today. The mare and yearling are acting just fine but Dante' is still hanging his head and won't eat his grain. He took a few bites of hay and is nibbling grass in the pasture a little but he's just not right! Before he left last week, he was such a character, pulling on my clothes,digging in my pockets and following me everywhere just to get a treat. Now he won't even take a treat!! His head is always hanging down, his lower lip is hanging and he is drinking a lot of water. I didnt see his poop yet but when I was brushing his tail, it looked like it may have been runny. I have never taken a horses temp before so I would appreciate advice on that and any other ideas out there. PLEASE! I just went out again to check on him and he's so 'not himself'. It is tearing me apart that I did this to this little guy and I can't stop crying!. What can I do to help him be happy again! Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.
