A WEC is used to identify infestation of common adult worm species including small (cyathastomins) and. large adult redworms (strongyles) and large roundworms (ascarids) in your horse. In most horses the. majority of the eggs we see will be from cyathastomin worms. WECs do not give an accurate assessment of encysted larvae, bots, pinworms or tapeworm.

Horses can use hay and other roughages as nutrient sources much more efficiently than other nonruminants such as poultry or pigs, although utilization is less efficient than in ruminants. Traditionally, it was stated that a good source of roughage should comprise at least 50% of the total equine ration by weight.It is now recommended that horses receive at least 1.5%â2% of their body weight in forage or forage substitutes such as hay cubes or other high-fiber source daily. 500-kg horse exercising for 1 hr in a hot environment will need to drink 72â92 L of water to replace sweat and evaporative losses. Lactating mares need 12â14 L per 100 kg body wt to sustain good health and milk production.
