Answer 1

Usually, the horse will stop eatting, refusing any sort of food, water and just overall listless. That's usually the beginning signs. Pawing and pacing can also be early signs.

Then, you'll get belly biting, and attempts to roll. That's really when you have to keep them walking. You'll also get groans by now as well. Breaking out into sweat from the pain.

It's not fun at all. I've had that happen to my horse twice in the past 5 years.

Answer 2

symptoms rolling not using the restroom and laying down and not getting up
