please dont think i was saying you were, but just precautionary.....lol....

some people tend not to think about it and quite innocently fed them too much.........

the lady i spoke of ealrier, has seen the light and has agreed to only feed them in the winter......so i have agreed i will give her a sack of ' proper feed ' and a measuring scoop for them so she can still feed them....lol...the things you have to do eh....lol.

Thank you so much for your advise I know next to nothing about horses and they are so friendly ,just come up when they see me at the fence i would be devastated if i thought i had inadvertantly been doing something that would make them ill

Your friend "Richie"

didnt realise Richie posted about this Crying or Very sad

We are both pretty gutted TBH, shes a few painless months in her as yet apparently... so I have been holistically treating her myself with herbal preperations for the past 2 weeks.

Her wound has almost "dryed" up to the point scabbing Its become a VERY visable and an obvious "wound heal" is taking course about the size of a Expresso saucer not huge like it was. The preparations I used have worked and NO flys, eggs or other beasties are apparent at all at the moment Very Happy

Richards Sister is a proffessional when it comes to Reki and Crystal therapy and Reflexology wich has more than proved to me within a WEEK! It work's! but be aware of frauds, I have seen a good few on here of people that know there stuff BTW, just be cautious with some.!

We feel at the moment if we can just help her Journey to be easier, I know this horse is not ours but I pull the stops out in any occassion when an animal is suffering and we can make their life easier wether it be herbal preparations or Geniune Hands on treatments or just a Hug!.

I know I shoot but at the end of the day I would not Hurt or Wound a Fly, food wise I do kill I do Hunt but if in anyway I thought I would not take an animal out "clean" for food I seriously would NOT do it.

Tommorow I'll be going up the field again and take a few pictures of our poorly lady a basic preperation I used on her was "Tumeric" in paste form can post details of MY findings later?
I posted a "Basic" explantion on another web site once, seems some took heed? then again may be not Laughing

But trust me herbs do work in certain conditions, I know we won't save this Girl BUT I'm having a go Very Happy
