WW: Weirdo

Another Aeres update. She ate "really well" yesterday, eating hay from a small hole hay net, "as much as we could put in front of her". She didn't drink though, but she didn't even try to drink, so they're wondering if she's just not thirsty from being on fluids. They left the feeding tube out last night to see if she would get thirsty enough to try, and did bloodwork both last night and again this morning to make sure her electrolytes stay stable. As this post auto-posts, I am waiting on an update to hear how that went, but we're THRILLED that she's eating!

 He has always eaten grain like this, as long as I've owned him.

  1. That is SUCH great news about Aeres! Fingers crossed she keeps improving! It does kind of make sense that she wouldn't be thirsty if she is pumped full of fluids.
