How long has it taken some of you to get your horses weight back after a severe colic? Nearly lost my gelding in December and he still has not gained a lot of his weight back :(

I would feed a high quality Sr Feed and add probiotics and a good ulcer product. Have you had him scoped?

This. 28 days of Ulcergard, 10 days of ProBios full dose to start. Then 1 lb rice bran, 1 lb Ultium, Forco, Smartpak SmartGut Ultra, Enshure, and 1/2 cup Cool Calories twice daily brought mine back from the dead after he spent 14 days at the equine hospital after a mystery digestive breakdown.

Edited to add free choice high quality alfalfa as main forage.

What type of colic did the horse have, what was the treatment, any complications, and what have you been feeding?
