So we're out of the sub zero temps and starting to thaw... a lot. It's nothing but mud and ... er... manure. Now is the time when you really have to be diligent with your horses in pasture. Thrush will creep up quickly in these wet conditions, especially if you have a few consecutive days where the ground has standing water or is wet.
The best way to stay on top of thrush is a weekly check of all of your horses. If you have horses that are prone to thrush, use a treatment or inhibitor every week, that will keep things from getting outta hand.
