Hi Carol, Linda gave you some good ideas. Fecal check...you bet. Now, to stop the diarrhea.... give your Fjord 12cc of Dark Kero Syrup...straight. Then a good dose of ProBios or JumpStart Plus....both good probiotics...once a day for three days. You should put some electrolytes in the water. The horse is losing them in the fluid discharge. Any squirty discharge gets another dose of Kero Syrup. I know of an old Indian remedy which entails a shot of whisky instead of the Kero Syrup...but have not tried it. If you are feeding sweet feed, check it closely for any mold or mites. Look for powdery residue in the feed. Are you using the same batch of grain as when the scours began? I, personally, would stop sweet feed completely for a while and switch to dry. Hope this helps... Fred All Mail is scanned in AND out by Norton Anti-virus 2004.
