thankyou for your help i really apprieciate it!
Honey has relaxed loads, i walked her around as much as she hated it (due to her having lami at present) vet came super quick, gave her a glance up and down, gave her some antibiotics through injection and said call him asap if she gets worse, shes still in a state but not down as much, shes done one poo (really small) but vet said thats good.

im going to check her every hour, vet was down for 2/3 hourss.
he said to ride my other one and then check on her, which i did, she was standing there, and then moved round the box and went back to the same place?

Re: Shes colicing!! Help! QUICK.

Just keep an eye on her through the night is she stabled at home, if so check on her as often as you can I used to sit up with ours as if the get cast in the box it is often hard to get them up and moving.

Forgot to say well done to you
