'mardy mare' type supplements, do they work?

[georgiegirl2]

as title really! Do any of these supplements for 'temperamental' mares work? Which have you tried and what differences did you find?

Magic and Stroppy Mare didn't work for mine. Moving her from a stressy yard to a laid back one worked a treat ... do the math!

I've used Slut Mix (yes, really

) and Hormonise on a marish mare and both seemed to make a difference. Both contain Agnus castus.

ooo - I was JUST about to ask this question myself as I own a stroppy mare too

Read your post on rearing GG2 and this is just what my 5 yr old has started doing. Hoping its a phase.

Want to know if the stuff works but part of me thinks waste of money.....

NAF Oestress works on the grumpy mare I ride, she used to be on it all the time and was much better (we once ran out when she came into season, she was a nightmare!). She's not only on it when she's in season and it still works!

coincidence! Maybe theres something in the air at the moment and all the babies are trying it on!!!

lol - yes - I thought that when I read your post. Maybe it's a yorkshire thing...

My girl is on Hilton Herbs Equilibrium and it seems to make a difference.

I was recommended Hormonise by some HHO peeps and I have been really pleased with the effect.
I don't think they're miracle cures BUT it's definately taken the edge off
