Gas-Eaze ?? Anyone heard of it ?

[cobden99]

...used it, or knows where I can get it from ? I saw it once advertised in a free ads paper and I think it was by a company called Stable Label but I cant find it (or them) anywhere ! I would like help for my gassy gelding ...

Have you tried fennell this is good for gassy neds

 

[cobden99]

Hi thanks for that; I havent tried fennel yet but funnily enough I saw some only yesterday in the local feed store - no instructions on it at all though. Any idea of quantities ?

 

[bracken1]

ask the shop owner they should be able to advise. Diferent makes need different measures

global herbs?

I've been feeding my horse a supermarket equlivent of gaviscon with some success. It's cheap and easy and he eats it happily. I have also fed him 'deflatine' tablets, but they are a bit more of a faff.

Been thinking about doing this for Finn. Has anyone's vet commented on using Gaviscon or equivilent?

How much do you feed?

 

[Ferdinase514]

I have looked at Coligone and am def considering it, kate, but £50 per month is lots

It depends upon what you're using it for - if you've got a horse bloated from grazing then a 50ml syringe or equivalent in his feed will work to reduce the gases that build up - it can be fed daily (50ml twice daily to begin with but this can be reduced to 30ml once or twice a day depending upon how the horse reacts) It works really quickly though

I think it is a great product.

I would need to feed it to him from now until winter. Was planning to use the powder, in the hope he could go out for longer periods, at the mo he goes out for 4/5 hours max.

It's worth giving it a try - it's awful not allowing the horse out for lengthy periods isn't it - H is the same - more than a few hours and she just can't cope with it!
