I've used Miracle Collars with success - you may need the fuzzy cover set to keep it from rubbing. Other than damage to the stall/fences - which can be considerable - I don't worry too much about cribbing - people used to think it caused colic, or that other horses would learn to crib by watching, but I think both of those ideas are pretty much disproved. My old gelding used to be a terrible cribber - we put his water buckets on the floor and gave him a feed pan on the floor instead of a corner feeder, and the problem pretty much went away. He also used to crib on the fence, but really doesn't anymore now that he is on all day turnout.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
