Udder cream... where to buy lots???

[somethingorother]

Anyone have any suggestions as to where i can get a huuuge tub of udder cream, preferably a thick one with tea tree. The one we have at the mo is robinsons own, no tea tree, very thin and mud fever is returning after only a few days use after running out of the Equimins one which was fab.

There's several horses to do though so need a big tub, maybe over 1k, and preferably cheap. Am sure that farmers don't use equimins at £12 per kg, however good it is!

Any help will be rewarded with matchmakers and peanut brittle

I use udder cream on my mare in the summer and get a big tub from my local agricultural store. Can't remember how much it is, but it's not that expensive and lasts me all summer. No tea tree in it though.

I have no idea where our nearest agricultural store is, but will have a good google. Thanks hzza, but i don't think that price is much different than in the shops/ online stores.

Try
http://www.equimins-online.com/cgi-bin/ca000002.pl

They also do a mud slide off product that may be worth trying?

Ah, thanks that's great and very cheap! Can't see anything about ingredients though... wondering if the not so great stuff we have now is the more traditional type of udder cream, and the tea tree stuff is a special horsey concoction.

Wonder if i could make my own, with tea tree and something like zinc and caster oil cream, or emulsifying ointment? Hrmmm...

Battle Hayward and Bower do udder cream that has cetrimide in it, which should work as well as tea tree oil:- http://www.hyperdrug.co.uk/searchprods.asp
