Worming -Does your horse “sift” or “spit out” bitter or strong smelling worming or “Bute” granules?
Here is a simple way to help him gobble them up! Simply freeze the granules or powder until solid.
Mix up a small amount of his favorite food e.g. a sweet bran mash. Offer a taste to get his interest, and then mix in the frozen granules into the cold mash.
Gobble, munch, gobble, they’re gone! Horses can’t smell or taste very cold granules.
