The more I read about IR the more scared I am. I think Ofeig is too
fat. The vet remarked that she had grown and I wonder if she meant in
width. She measures 366kg on the weight tape(winter coat). Is that too
big for 13.1hands? Am I killing her with too much hay. She is having 1
1/2 hrs grass daily at present. She has a crest and a fat tail base. I
can't easily feel her ribs. Her cannon has grown a lot and she is
wider. I will just have to wait to see whats left when the winter coat
comes off. Last summer she was only 312 kg. I may have to get her a
muzzle. At least when my arena is finished she will get more exercise
and I could use it for turnout. It's hard toexercise her in mud. In the
meantime I will worry.
