My first hands-on experience with colic was when my mare, Misty, was boarded in Brooklyn. It was a very unnatural situation with no turnout. Misty had received the required spring vaccinations and had a bad reaction. She was feverish, lethargic and her neck had a grapefruit-sized knot at the injection site.
That evening I got a call from the stable. She wasn’t eating and they were worried about colic. The usual colic remedy was a shot of Banamine and wait to see if a vet call was necessary. It was a long, scary night but by morning she was slightly improved.
A few years later we were blessed to be able to move Misty to Seven Springs and set up a natural herd environment. By then I had started on an empowering journey to find holistic solutions, which was fortunate since vets are scarce in this rural area.
