This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello, Does anyone know the reason or reasons a horse may start to yawn excessively. I recently have taken a horse with a 2 week lease toward purchase. After a couple of days, he started to yawn. Maybe 6 to 8 times in a row. I have been told this is because of pain, having to adjust to a new environment, or liver problems. All different vets or people horse owner answers. I am taking him to the vet today to check him out. He hasn't had his sheath cleaned and he is 6 years old. So he may have a bean. He is also grieving for his old buddies and home. He seems to be sound otherwise. Just had his feet done, and his feet are fine. Incidentally he is a cross. Mom is 1/2 Arab and 1/2 QH, and his dad is 1/2 QH and 1/2 Fjord. He is a really cute buckskin dun and very well trained. Gets alone well with my Fjord. Thanks, Onna
