:I have one like that with a lot of worm damage and also older. It had the same problem with the persistant dhiarrea and did not clear until after I replaced his hay with pellets and cubes as he was not able to digest his hay well enough even though his teeth were good. I continued to give him some supplimental beet pulp and an occasional dose of probios as I found this works better than the dry products. His stool haslooked good for some time.
