Re: [RC] Pathophysiology of Scratches - firedancefarms
Carol,
I have a horse that gets this as
well. It is only from the knee to the pastern. If I move him to
another pasture, it goes away. He is the only one who gets it, and he got
it last year about this time of the year as well. I have decided it is
either seed ticks, or chiggars. I have seen something that looks like a
mite, so when school starts next week, I'll take some tape one morning and a
'sample' and see if I can find something under the
microscope!
For this horse, next to moving him to
the other pasture, equi-spot seems to help.
