Two of our donks have lumps and bumps suddenly - bit like rain scald but as they are rugged up it isn't that.
Mainly on one side, top of quarters, coming down quarters close to hip on one, and closer to spine on other. Lumps which pull off with hair attached, doesn't hurt them, doesn't seem sore. They don't bleed, come away cleanly, leave pink skin underneath. Not particularly crusty, at first it feels a bit like they have scraped themselves i.e. a cut which is healing, but then you see that it is distinct round lumps.
Suspect it is some kind of insect bite. I have taken some scrapings which will drop off at the vet tomorrow, any ideas?
