Worms

Yesterday I got the results of Kid and Rupert's fecal tests - :(. Our diligent rotational worming schedule did not keep Kid from having lots of strongyles in his sample and a few in Rupert's. This is the second year in a row Kid has had lots of worms. I'm not happy. The vet is reviewing our schedule and will get back with me with her recommendations. Meanwhile, she wants Kid to have a Power Dose or Power Pak for this month and Rupert gets a double dose of Panacur.

I know for a fact there are some people at our barn that are lax about worming and rotating wormers. It's going to be hard to get our problem under control if they don't take care of theirs.
