My next door neighbor went to a general horse auction and came home with 5 horses she spent under $400 total for. She noticed they kept laying down and another neighbor noticed yellow mucus from the nose. To make a long story short, they had shipping fever. Her pastures abut mine and I now have it running thru my farm. We are at 30 sick horses and counting! Stallions, mares, and babies. I don't know how much this will cost me and whether or not I will lose any babies. Please, please, whenever you bring a new horse home, quarantine them for 30 days. It may save some one else a lot of heartache and worry. Susan
