Hi,

Just wanted to know if this was fact or fiction-my guess is fiction.

When asking someone why they didn't use daily wormer (she has a boarding facility) She replied that when you try take them off of it esp older horses you can run into problems with blockage. She had one of those "I know everything attitudes" so I didn't ask more on this. Have you ever heard such a thing-It doesn't make sense to me.
