Re: [RC] Weather Change Colic - Karen Sullivan----- Original Message ----- From: <bechack@xxxxxxx> Vets (many I have spoken with) say the # of Colic's increases in September.....Sudden Weather changes to the cooler? I try to add VERY WET beet pulp at that time, Just to add moisture when they might slow down their drinking. *Thats what I'm doing right now....can help to add some extra salt too. Another trick I use which works with my horses is a huge barrel filled with water....a saucepan of bran floating on the top and again, a good dose of salt. They really slurp that down all day......then the salt kicks in and they go drink a lot of clear water.....
