Re: Re: Does anyone have information about grass sickness ???


A pony at our stables died of grass sickness a few years ago. The vet said this can lay dormant for years. No other animal has died of this since.

Unfortunately one of my ponies died about 6 yrs ago , I think he had grass sickness as a pony had died about 3 years previously of this in the same field and the symptoms sounded the same.




I am worried as no-one grazed the land again until now !!!!! should I say something to the lady who has put her ponies on this field ??? or will I been seen as interfering ???

Re: Does anyone have information about grass sickness ???
