I tried -EVERYTHING- and nothing was working. Fruit juice, molasses,
sugar, flavors, warm, cold, medium water. Salted fruit, salted mash,
even rubbed salt on her lips. NOTHING was working!! And she wouldn't eat
the mash! And she wasn't drinkingat all.
So, the vet said--Strip her stall totally. All manure, and any trace of
hay out. Re-bed it. And put her in it with a bucket of water & NO FOOD
AT ALL!!! Then leave her there the rest of the day and all night. So I
did. And IT WORKED!! Went out there this morning and she had drank
more than 1/2 a bucket of water. When I gave her hay to her she happily
ate it. It's radical. But it worked. If anybody else has a horse being
finicky in this weather, try it....
