We had to call the vet out yesterday for our little Rosco, Barbie's foal. He was 3 days old yesterday and he was rolling and thrashing about. The vet has given us meds to give him for the next 5 days. He is a good boy and is taking it fine. They had to put a tube in him and put 250 cc of a few different meds right into his tummy. (we thought he was gonna pop ) also gave him a very tiny dose of Bamamine? (sp) for any discomfort to try and help him calm down. Well it all has worked so far. He hasn't rolled or thrashed since. We have been watching him around the clock literally. The vet says watch him for a few days and he should be fine. We are so scared now that we are afraid to leave the house without at least one person on watch at the monitor.
Have any of you folks that have had foals colic have it happen soon after again? He is passing his poops and peeing and nursing every 30 min or so and loves to romp outside. So we are not sure what it was???
