Under most conditions this is not an issue, however under some circumstances due to the sand being heavy, it can accumulate in the hindgut and cause a blockage and abdominal pain. The movement of sand through the intestines depends on the rate of passage of the digesta (undigested food). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs184C654\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"csAD8CEAB\"\u003eDue to the ongoing drought conditions seen in most of Australia, the risk of sand colic and sand related blockages is increasing, as horses strive to find pasture to eat. Many horse owners feed hay on the ground (which is a healthy way for horses to eat as it mimics the natural grazing practice), but as the horse eats the last of the hay they often accidentally consume some of the dirt or sand that is underneath.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs184C654\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"csAD8CEAB\"\u003eThe accumulation of sand can be exacerbated when the rate of passage is slow.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"csB20E944\"\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cspan class=\"csAD8CEAB\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"csCA8CFEB\"\u003eWhat you can do if your horse has an accumulation of sand in their gut:\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"csAD8CEAB\"\u003e•    Provide hay or feed in feeders off the ground\u003cbr\u003e•    Avoid overgrazing if possible\u003cbr\u003e•    Feed a supplement that swells when added to water, and assists the clearance of sand in the faeces.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stance Equitec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51765283979559,"sku":"9342888001887","price":49.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/7189\/0983\/files\/9342888001887_1.jpg?v=1785478494","url":"https:\/\/thebarnpetstock.com\/products\/stance-equitec-sandbuster-2kg","provider":"The Barn Pet Stock and Feed","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
