Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I have a friend who keeps horses, and I want to give him some MMS. What would you suggest I tell him to be the way to give it to the horses? He feeds them hay and other grasses, not pelleted feed.

They drink excessive amounts of water and must to stay alive.

So,l tried it in their pelleted feed and they never missed a beat. Many people have been mixing it with the dogs food so assumed it wouldnt hurt the pelleted feed to try that first and it worked. l knew if the horses refused to eat it that the pigs would not mind a bit. l have been doing the MMS a few times a week for several weeks. My job prevents me from doing it every day,as well as the price of the MMS.l use about a cup when l MMS my non-human family members. l hope to get some dry flakes ASAP, maybe even a 55 gallon barrell.  Kathy in Texas  PS We never caught the people who poisoned my old horses but have since moved the water barrels to where the dogs have easy access should another trespasser try to poison them again, and my dogs bite first and ask questions later. After their water was analyzed it was determined that eight gallons of antifreeze were added to their water barrel. Glad l know where they are going in the end.... Kathy, Thank you for this info. I have a question tho... How long have you been using it on your stock and have you seen any changes? Why are you putting it on your horses feed vs. water buckets? Thanks,  Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape in the new year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I am appalled at the evil that men do. My heart goes out to you. I pray your horses recover. Yes, you really need to buy a big drum of this stuff! Maybe the vet would be able to help there. I know that dairy farmers use this with the cows. Someone posted on this list or MDI list about that back in Nov, I believe. Maybe a search of the word dairy would find it. Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
