Re: [RC] Rest induced colic and tying up?? - Mary Ann Spencer

I am wondering also.  My 3yo green broke was stiff and sore from mountain riding but she is fine.  She was off for a week.  BUT I usually feed free choice good quality hay, here in WA, it is timothy, in TX it would be bermuda.

A suddenly hard work today, or this weekend,followed by two weeks off, is the perfect setup for tying up and colic--and poor performance.


My question:

Why is two weeks off a perfect set-up for colic or tying up?????
