crowbait
Crowbait is a derogatory term that originated in the Western United States, typically referring to a horse that is in poor condition, old, weak or sickly. It suggests that the animal is so unhealthy, it could serve as food for crows. The term may sometimes be extended to refer to anything or anyone that is similarly worn out or in bad condition.
