The vet also suggested that in cold weather we add table salt to the horses feed to encourage them to drink more, apparenly some horses drink much les in very cold weather and this can lead to impaction.

Had a horse with an impaction a few years ago,all the usual treatment did not work and I was asking the vet to put the horse to sleep, he said he had 1 old tick to try. Colovet and milk nasally, IT WORKED !!!!!!!! after 6 days and 9 nine call outs he made a full recoverey and I still have him now.
Merry Xmas love Julie, Laura and Toy Faere
