[QUOTE="Alan, post: 344902, member: 378"] Sorry for the late post, but sand colic is something I also watch for. I don't feed that much oil, but I do a simple test to see how much sand is in their system. I take about 10 chunks of manure (apples) and let them soak in a bucket of water for a few days, 3 or 4, I stir the water once or twice a day to completely desolve the apples, fresh apples are better and easier to desolve. After the apples are completely desolved the sand is left on the bottom. I'll treat them with sand clear if I get more than a table spoon of sand. [/QUOTE]
