Not so good news...
My friend's yearling filly, Valencia, is sick. I was worried about her, as she's young and came off the range so has probably never been exposed. They took her down to quarantine last night. At this point, I'm not sure why they are bothering to do that, as all the horses have been exposed, but it is raining today, so at least she'll be out of that.
The last owner of the barn put a strict quarantine on the whole property when we had an outbreak, and only 3 horses got sick. This owner... yeah, nope.
Still keeping a close eye on my boy. I know he's probably got good immunity against this (strangles), but I still worry.
