Hi guys. Not sure if anyone cared for an update... good news is a really like the horse. So I contacted the seller and got the β€œoh I thought I told you.” Anywho I expressed how not happy I was but in all honesty I like the horse enough to keep her. Because she started cribbing only when I grained her and she looks poor IMO, I immediately started her on ulcer meds and took her off feed. She’s on alfalfa cubes, grass, grass hay, and baled alfalfa. I put stabilized flax seed/rice bran (1 cup) in her alfalfa cubes with her MVP. It’s only been a few days and she looks 100% better. She did not crib yesterday during dinner praise Jesus... I’m really hoping it’s a pain response and fixing the ulcers and sticking forage in front of her will fix it. I did take her out of a bucket on the fence and put her in a feeder on the ground. I took the cribbing collar off because it rubbed her over the weekend :/ I will need to order one that’s lined for when we go over night and she HAS to be in a stall. I have this tiny glimmer of hope there is a new horse on the other side of the ulcers.

Buy this one. Best one you can get.

Never had a cribber that was a $hitter. Who cares if they crib it's not a big deal. An OCD, tore ligament, or chips IS
