Location: Lost in the swamps		Just went thru this just this week. A mare we got a few months ago Had a bout of diarrhea this Wednesday. It was all over her blanket, stall walls. Temp normal, bp, resp rate normal. Not dehydrated.... Three things came to mind. Sand, parasites, ulcers.
Did the fecal sand test and she did have a good bit of sand in her feces. Still took her to the vet. She had worms when we got her but have power packed her in October. Still wanted to do fecal egg count to be sure it wasn't parasites. And blood work to rule out infection and such. Fecal egg was 0 and blood came back perfect. Vet was pretty sure it was the sand that irritated her Bowles. She suggested lots of hay. And did mention that there has been lack of evidence on the physillium treatments. but it wouldn't hurt to give it to her since I already it. After all this by barn buddy tells me two/three days before he caught her in the arena grazing in the grass on the edges and that some one left the gate open..... Somebody indeed got a butt chewing!!!!
