I am looking for advice on cribbing.My 5 year old gelding started cribbing
last year after being stalled for 6 weeks recovering from surgery at MSU. 
Initially he may have did it for boredom, then maybe pain control but now
it is a big problem.  I have a miracle collar on him at all times, but he
has figured out ways around that. ( He will crib and suck wind) He will go
for wood that is low enough the collar isn't effective or just tolerate the
discomfort it causes f he is determined. the collar is 1-11/3 yrs old, so I
plan to replace it soon.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated- I
would like to have a 10 yr old gellding with teeth!!!    montie schutz
