Yearling with Excessive Salivating

[wingnut]

My husband has let me know that one of our yearling is salivating/drooling quite excessively. She ate her morning feed with no problem. No other symptoms that we can determine. She grazed as normal when they were put out on the pasture for a couple hours this morning.

Any thoughts? Ideas? Other things I should be looking for/checking for?

I had a bag of whole oats that did that to my mare. there must have been some clover seed in the oats. Stopped feeding her it and she stopped drooling like a saint bernard. It was gross.

She's on a pelleted feed (Strategy). We're thinking maybe it was another weed or something in the pasture?

Teeth? She's only a yearling so her teeth haven't fully come in yet. The equine dentist was out in mid-March to give everyone a once over and a "beginner's float" so they can get used to having their mouth manipulated like that. Of the 4 animals we have, she and the 11 yr old mare have as nearly perfect teeth as a horse can have, according to him.
