Swollen eyes
I have an older horse who is now extremely sensitive to flies irritating his eyes. They get goopy and infected. He has to wear a fly mask full time spring, summer and fall.

Bloodwork drawn once yearly?
My vet prescribes pergolide based on symptoms. She says, by looking the horses in the eye to see if they look like they do not feel well. Thus far, her diagnoses have been predictive of elevated ACTH.

Cat neck
I had a Norwegian Fjord who was a stallion until he was nine who had a bit of a cat neck developing after being somewhat overweight. He was insulin resistant, but not terribly so.

When I had domestic turkeys, I would have taken your leftovers. They live acorns. And have incredible personalities.

Uckele treats GREAT BUY at Chewy 😊
How big are these treats? I am looking for something really small if I can find it. I considered buying Charlie Bear dog treats which look like miniature oyster crackers. About dime size.

My horse has laminitis
Not a moderator, but interested to hear what hospitalization could actually do for his pain? I cannot think of what they could do that you cannot do at home.

Time of day influencing glucose levels
I have given up relying on the USPS for any critical mails lately. It took them 6 days to deliver a letter sent to a place that is 10 miles from me. I am pretty certain this is related to the new poli
