Reaction to 'heating' feeds/supplements

[SarahC]

Hi all,

I put my girly on Equine America's Propell Plus to give her a bit more energy....now, she is better on it, and while we have seen no difference in her general 'spookiness' while around the yard (very busy with lots of hedges and farm machinery!), or in the school (surrounded by hedges etc), she is REALLY spooky out hacking....in fact she can't walk in a straight line as she is just looking at everything!

Now I would have thought that if this was down to the Propell heating her up, she would be more spooky full stop, not just while hacking....

What do you guys think?

ps. no other reason for sudden change out hacking...saddle, teeth, back, reiki all just been done and has also been vet checked as part of routine call out....

Propell boings up my TB mare big time at the recommended dose - known as Peri's rocket fuel :D try cutting it down and see what happens.

The ingredients in the Supplement may be causing a lack of minerals or vits in her system causing a surge of excitement and flight thinkings.
Magnesium is used to calm horses down, and this supplement may be over riding these minerals.
Try using a more natural power shot such as Oxyshot which makes the horse concentrate more and relax more.. but gives that extra bit of oxygen which in turn can give more controllable energy.
