Worming Question

[seaofdreams]

o.k whenever i worm my horse i always give them 24hrs maybe longer before i exercise them, but i had to worm Mouse tonight so she keeps in with the rest of the horses and so the field can be swept in a couple of days but im competing Mouse (x-c) on Sunday and i need to keep her in work and as she has got to have wednesday off as ive got Hypnotherapy session she can't have tomorrow night off (tues)
will it be ok to ride her, ive read the box but it doesn't say ??
i know it may silly but because ive allways not ridden, ive never thought about it
thanks

What is your reason for not riding?

 

[CastleMouse]

I'd say that that's perfectly fine to ride her tomorrow

sorry if i didn't make it clear

Thanks DD

Ride, unless worming really upsets her digestive system. If it doesn't no problem, ride.

I don't really understand why you don't ride your horse for 24 hours after worming?? Does your horse get ill or something when it is wormed?

Years ago we used to always rest our horses for 24 hours after worming, but the wormers then were pretty powerful (there was one called Frisk, which would kill chickens if they picked at the horse's poo after worming!) and quite often made the horses scour. The wormers available now are much, much better and there shouldn't be any problems.

i don't know really i think it was because years ago at a yard we used to give them 24hrs off

no she has never had any digestive probs that i know off
