Basil's Lumps

Last weekend Basil had me worried, he was covered in bumps!  What started early in the week as one or two little lumps that I thought were fly bites slowly became lots of lumps and not all of them small.  He had a few that were about 2 cm across.

They were on his shoulders, his tummy, his rump and on his hindlegs ....

It was a very hot week and I thought that maybe they were because of the heat but there were so many that I thought I may have to call the vet just in case he needed a steroid injection.

You might remember that 4 years ago when Tommy arrived he had a small number of lumps which the Blue Cross vet had put down as Hives due to the hot weather - you can see my blog here.

Luckily the weather cooled down last Monday and by Tuesday they were all gone :)

Never a dull moment with horses!!!
