No I wasn't kidding. After 6 years of records of every colic, gas problem
and general wierdness eating in my animals well over 75% of them are within
a day of a full moon. I don't understand and I don't really care but I do
tend to give bran now and since I started that my colic incidence is down
to more normal scattered thru the month. We've got 20 animals and I count
in my definition of colic any animal who doesn't clean up all their hay or
who even looks at their sides a moment too long. <g>
