This message is from: Sarah Clarke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I am seconding the advice to get her moving. Not intense, but the horse gut wants the horse to walk around to keep the gut contents moving. In terms of colic risk factors a horse that can wander in it's enclosure it better off than one confined to too samll a space with no wandering room. Best wishes for Della's complete recovery. --- On Fri, 6/13/08, Warren Stockwell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
