Equine-Reproduction.com Bulletin Board » Foaling and Immediate Post-foaling Issues » Foal with swollen back legs??? « Previous Next » Author Message   Tansy Brassfield Neonate Username: Spccutnoak Post Number: 7 Registered: 08-2005 Posted on Wednesday, August 17, 2005 - 06:51 pm:        My foal is three months old. I just noticed that both of his back legs are quite swollen. There is a few scrapes and scuffs, nothing serious to cause that much swelling and the swelling is from the hock down. He doesn't appear lame. His mom and him are on 100x200 dried up grass pasture. It has been pretty hot here around 100 and up. Not sure if I should be concerned or not. Thanks,   LRidgeway Weanling Username: Laurie Post Number: 44 Registered: 04-2005 Posted on Thursday, August 18, 2005 - 05:26 pm:        Is there any heat in the swelling? Is he running a fever? Could he have eaten something he's not supposed to?   Tansy Brassfield Neonate Username: Spccutnoak Post Number: 8 Registered: 08-2005 Posted on Friday, August 19, 2005 - 12:07 am:        Its gone down and I think he might of just kicked at something with both legs I guess. I was just very worried.
