I went away on vacation for a week, and the people that were taking care of my horses left the chicken feed box open. My mare, Babe, ate 3/4 of a 50 lb bag of layena. She coliced, we got her through that, but she also has laminitis. She is basically ruined. I cant ride her anymore. She is about 28 or 29, and shes only had the laminitis since 7-25-08, but she is in such a miserable state. She cant walk, even though im giving her bute. Its too expensive to get a vet out here, and it might not be the best idea to keep her fighting. Im giving her time, i cant just not give her a chance. But ifs she doesnt get better in a week or two..should i put her down?
