I have heard a little about this stuff on here. When my vet was here to do a foal check/IgG test, I asked her what was her best course of action for foal runs. She said they started using biosponge. I bought some off of her (you can get it off the web too) anticipating that the little petri dish would get the runs. Well, at two weeks exactly, she had very watery stools and a LOUD gut. As per the vets instruvctions (nothing can be substituted for a good vets advice) I gave her biosponge 4x a day, probios paste 2x a day, pepto every 3-6 hours (only needed to give it 2x) and SMALL amounts of electrolite paste. Her stools went from watery to semi solid in 6-8 hours, she had a completely dry tail in 24 hours. I was expecting a few days, not hours. It is deffinately worth having on hand if you have foals.
I just wanted to share.
