Well, we just wormed the horses with the Quest wormer this afternoon.
They're still standing, so I guess all is well <G>

I have to say, the gel-formula of this wormer is wonderful! It
dissolves almost immediately, so there's no way the horse can spit it
out....I know I've spent my share of time scooping up globs of paste
wormer off the ground and trying to shove it back in their mouths.

Price was a bit high....$14.50 a tube (Jeffer's has it for $13.95) but
now they say we don't have to worm again till Jan 1st '98.

Be interesting to see how fecals come back this winter.

And a question: can anyone tell me how horses are tested for tapeworm?
I understand that a double dose of Strongid paste is needed to eradicate
them, but how to know if the animal even has them?

thanks,

tracy
