Around here my guys are dewormed 3 times a year. May, August, and then in October after the first good frost. Their fecal samples are always clean in October. However, the babies need it more often, and some babies more than others. I dewormed Solon almost twice as much as the other babies we've had around here. Babies carrying a heavy worm load can do damage to their gut that can be a life- affecting thing. At least that's what I've been led to believe. I have often wondered when an owner who is diligent with deworming suddenly finds herself faced with a colicky horse, if it isn't because of some lack of deworming that happened to that horse as a baby.
