Captain has green urine and strong smelling today. We have had to change his mix as they didnt have our usual. I have only introduced about 4 handfuls. May this be the cause?? Have I introduced too much so soon???

I have never heard of green urine before, i cant see it being the feed change,
i would phone the vet and ask there advice, they dont charge for a phone call

Def phone the vet. Never heard of this in 15 years!

Green normally indicates an infection.

Is his "thing" swollen or tender?

When did you last clean it?

Yes he does need a clean down below. But he isnt keen on anyone touching it...:rolleyes: Some members on board dont believe you should clean though. But I will keep an eye on things. :p

Its just green suggests an infection.

i've never had a gelding myself but I try and keep my mare clean.

He may have gotten something caught in there. Have you had anymore green urine? I'd get a vet to see him if it continues or if he is swollen
