[RC] hair loss: mites? Lice? ....? - A. PerezThe farm where I field board is currently suffering from an epidemic of hairloss. Most of the 20+ horses have patches of hair loss or areas where the hair is broken off at the skin surface in large irregular patches - look like they've been shaved. At first I thought it was due to rubbing, but it is showing up on areas that would be impossible for a horse to rub. It does not look anything like rain-rot (no scabs, bumps or dust), and does not appear to itch or be sore. Any suggestions as to cause or treatments would be most appreaciared. My vet is treating several of the horses and is not sure what is going on. ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag ============================================================ When you ask a Quarter horse for something he says - Sure - and when you ask an Arab for something he says - Why? - ~ Heidi Smith ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
