This message is from: SSlotness <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The foal (actually weanling) died of a ruptured bowel at 6 months old,OnChristmas! The bowel ruptured at a site of one of many lesions caused by Actinobacillus equuili. I don't know how the bacteria took over so greatly, since it is a comon bacteria that lives everywhere. The vet said she was healthy looking otherwise.
