Re: [RC] [RC] Feeding/riding issue/BP soaking - Lucy Chaplin Trumbull>> My daughter just did her science project on Enteroliths and colic. It was mentioned in one piece of literature that unsoaked pellets could cause the stomach to rupture. Dang, you were lucky. Shoot, 20 pellets eaten dry by my daughter's pony/horse gave him a good case of choke. Beccy in Ut. <<That's why I specified *shredded* BP, rather than the pellety kind. Eating the pellety kind dry would be like eating rocks (but I'm sure Mouse would try it anyway). As for stomach rupture, worth reading SuG's web site about it - scroll down about two thirds of the way and you can read all about it: http://www.shady-acres.com/susan/beetpulp.shtml * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Lucy Chaplin Trumbull elsietee AT foothill DOT net Repotted english person in the Sierra foothills, California * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
