Hi, I am new to mini's but I do have riding horses. I have a little man who is about 7 months who I have wormed two times as per my vet and he still has cowpatty poops. He does try and suckle his little stall mate who was weaned at the same time. They both had worms and bot fly larvea when they came to my home. I just don't know what else could be causing the mucky behind? He was getting a lot better after I wormed him the first time but then last Friday it started again so I wormed him as per vet and it has helped a bit but it still isn't great. He gets good hay which is about a 60/40 alfalfa mix as well as 60-40-10 grain mix. I have tried the powered probiotic as well peptobismol. I am just at a loss. I have had them for one month now and have managed to put some weight on them as well as they were very underweight. I have no problems with his little friend only with him.
His little back legs were also not working properly as he was almost rolling with them but I did get a barefoot trimmer out and it was a miracle as now he is walking perfect.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you
Tammy
