It took him less than one day from just not looking okay to dead. The vet could do NOTHING for him except to spare him the last throes… The horror of it is still with me. By the time this is diagnosed, it is already too late… It was and is a mystery as it did NOT come from his hay or feed. That it was botulism was confirmed by his brain tissue. My other horse who was in the adjacent pen never showed any symptoms.
