Was wondering if anyone else has come across this...
My horse seems to have developed a few lumps - look a little bit like fly bites, but we've not really had too many flies 'round these parts as yet, and he has been rugged most of the time when turned out. The are small - about 0.5cm in diameter, and don't seem to bother him at all - have poked & prodded!! He has one down his shoulder, and a couple which are nearer the saddle area.
He does tend to react to insect bites in the summer - nice big lumps - but not convinced that is what this is.
Must really try to get a pick or something, but hairy as he still is, I'm not sure there'd be that much to see!
Any thoughts?
