Yes and No (in terms of pronounciation) According to Wikipedia, an 1811 Dictionary entry reads as thus...
"to feague a horse is to put ginger up a horse’s fundament and formerly, as it is said, a live eel, to make him lively and carry his tail well. It is said, a forfeit is incurred by any horse-dealer’s servant, who shall show a horse without first feaguing him."
