[RC] thumps - John & Sue Greenall
Can there be a "slight" case of thumps? As in tying up, there are
degrees? Will calcium always correct it? Can a horse have a
"predisposition" for thumps (like tying up)? So we have all heard
that electrolytes will "prevent" thumps, but is there a "magic
number" for the amount of Ca+ needed to do this? And if the horse
is thumping, is there a source of Ca+ (such as cows get) that is
recommended for horses?
Yep, gotta new Morgan that seems to stress out in company and
"thump". I think?
