Yes, that's what I've been using for years and they've worked great but one of the boys decided to start spitting them out so I've been slicing them open and squeezing out the oil. Thought I'd

Heather, 4 grams is minuscule. Your horse should be fine. BTW we moderators at ECIR don’t often use the quote function replying to messages on the forum. Why? It hides the automatic signature for

Nicole, I would not add anything else right now to her feed until you know more of what you are dealing with. She is not eating much and adding anything is going to likely increase her inappetence.

Hi Carly, Human grade Vitamin E capsules in oil is what many of our members use. Thanks, Sherry and Scutch (and Scarlet over the bridge) EC Primary Response PA

Would it work to use high dose human-grade Vit E oil capsules? Or do these still need mixing with another oil? -- Carly Butler Nottinghamshire, UK,

Thanks so much. I searched the product names and not the ingredients… silly me! The biotin was added to begin with for my IR horses custom mineral so I would hope MB would know if it would be too

Thanks, Kirsten. I have a horse care person take over when I'm away and I'm trying to keep things as simple as possible for her. If it were only me doing the supplements, I'd probably go with the

Thanks Dr Kellon........ I'll give it a go when it arrives and let the group know. Just thinking it might delay rancidification but chances are it will heat up significantly during transport. Worth

Karen, I wouldn’t think more hay testing would be needed. If we’re think of the same implement, the baler goes along baling and ‘kicking’ into the wagon so I can’t imagine that all those

As per Dr. Kellon's message in this discussion chain (main@ECIR.groups.io | Distillers grain and yeast cultures) you don't want to go over a cup of the Distiller Grains in a day. Wheat middlings are

It's tough because there is always going to be some variability between bales but since the hay sample is an average, you have no idea how high the variability is without testing individual bales. I

Yes, ideally, 3+ weeks after the change. Depends on what you want to get out of the testing and how often you can test. Because my vet only visits 2x a year, and I don't get to pick the dates, I try

Hello, I am in the process of sourcing hay for next year but in the meantime time still using my hay from last fall but don’t have enough to order a bag of custom mix from Mad Barn. So I ordered the

Oops, My fingers must have slipped while I was posting and pasted something unnecessarily. Hang on and I will correct it! Sorry about that! Done! It’s super hot here (for us) and my fingers

What about Jiaogulan? I have read all the information on here just don't know if this is the right situation to use.-- Nicolle D in BC Canada

I just don't know how to stop the progression of the coffin bone. It has been 2 months of following protocols and she is getting worse not better. Has anyone experienced this?-- Nicolle D in BC

Thank you Sherry. She enjoys her salt and would likely eat 1 cup a day if left out.for her. I gave her 1 ml of ace yesterday to encourage her to lay down which she did. The edema was better last

Update: It will thicken but not solidify in the refrigerator. Because there is no water in it, it will not expand on thickening so you can use the same measurement. -- Eleanor in PA www.drkellon.com

You should keep fresh water beside her at all times and make sure she gets salt sprinkled on her hay. Tramodol can be used instead of NSAIDs. The antibiotic she is on has been associated with causing

Are you close enough to the vet school at WSU to make an appointment there. There is a condition in humans, MEN, multiple endocrine neoplasias, that has also been found in horses although it's rare.
