I'm not sure whether climate alone could affect the fibres that way, but I live in the UK where we definitely don't have hot and humid weather (right now in fact outside is just snow O.o.). I have a lot of ponies who spent a long time in a hot country (eg Brazil, Peruvian ponies) and they don't show that issue but the fibres for them may be different and it may matter where they are now being stored. What I do know though is that some hair products can do this to the fibres, especially if not properly washed out. I have a Butterscotch who has to live on my unit rather than in the cupboard with her friends because her hair is like that. When I got her, her hair was really gelled together, as were some of the others in the lot. Most of them I managed to get to in time but Butterscotch was particularly bad and when her hair dried, she had this problem. Touch wood she is the only one in my herd currently affected by that issue, but it might just as easily be to do with the products used on the hair as the climate. In particular since they are ponies from one specific seller, it may be to do with something the ponies were exposed to in the past and that wasn't fully washed from the hair - or something she's used to clean them and it's lingered and done the damage to the fibres.
Rotting hair ? Can you explain please ? That looks awful, I don't want this to happen to my G3s.
