Did you know, that Camomile calms down nervous horses?

07/21/2011 by Marie

Camomile offers plenty of healing substitudes and is famous for its calming effects.

The camomile blossom can be really helpful if horses are excited due to a competition or if nervous horses often provide colics.

Moreover this medicinal herb improves the general condition of the horse. In form of an ointment you can lubricate it on sweet itches.

Generally one must avoid the area around the eye so riders need to be careful!

You can collect the camomile blossoms between June and July. You can feed up to 50 g per day (fresh or dried camomile blossom).

Surftips:

  • St. James-Ragwort: very poisonous and an acute threat for horses
  • Foxglove- extremely toxic for horses and humans
  • Monkshood – the most poisonous plant in whole Europe
  • Nettles – medicinal herbs for our horses
