I beleive that's what it is or part of It. A resistant strain of worms. It happens with some horses and passes on to the whole herd. The way they figure out it's a resistant strain is deteriorating health with regular deworming.
Along with multiple fecal tests. The vet said,nothing they can do with those horses. We could learn a lot from veterinarians.
This is why I beleive they never warned us about parasites, eventually the parasites become resistant to the dewormers. The vets have to keep coming up with new medicines, and it's getting tougher all the time.The last one to come out is Praziquantel.
I need to read up on Equine EPM, it's a parasite horses get from oppossum feces. I had a horse with it. They say people don't get it. I don't beleive a parasite cares what type of body they find.
And yes I tried Eqimax horse dewormer. It helped but. |
