Without really planning it I've moved away from mineral/chemical supplementation and more towards herbs with excellent results.
I do have grazing and hay analysed and add mineral supplementation according to that, but for additional niggles I'm a fan of trying supplements to see if they make a difference.
Ones that I have found work :
Boswellia for mild arthritis/stiffness
Marigold and cleavers for moderate CPL
Oily herbs for mild faecal water which occurs at times of stress or forage change
Detoxing herbs for a snotty nose thought to be due to a skull fracture (clears up with antibiotics but comes straight back)
I am so impressed with the detox that I feed it to all my horses on and off because we have sycamore and who knows what else hiding in our huge pastures.
I dont really have any other issues to tackle but would be interested to hear others success stories.
