Hi DrO,
I normally quarantine a new horse for 30 days after I bring it home. We had quite an outbreak of Pigeon Fever in our area this past fall (first one in 20+ years), so I'm wondering if the 30 days is as safe as it gets, or if I should quarantine my new horse longer.
Thank you,
Lee C

About as safe as it gets.
