Vaccination
Posted by Chris (Bath Uk) on 09/20/2013
In UK eventing horses must have a flu vaccine every six months. I am told that in USA a nosode is acceptable. In view of groing evidence of link between vaccines and Cushings I would very much like information about this, is the info correct and which governing body should I contact?

Sea Kelp
We stopped cribbing by using about 1/8 cup a day of dry sea kelp in the horses feed. It also cures pink eye. Increases milk production about 25%. We use North American Kelp and buy it in the 50 lb bags. The animals just love it!

Tabasco sauce drizzled on the wood stopps them from cribbing and chewing. Irish spring soap works as well. Just take the bar and rub it directly onto the wood. My horse took one bite and never went back and the smell stays for a long time and freshens up your stalls.
