FW: [RC] [RC] [RC] Star Thistle - Nancy Sturm - Mike Sherrell

What I've heard, and read in Equus, is that it takes a lot of Star Thistle
to poison a horse, but that they develop a taste for it.

==========================================

Nancy:

I read with interest your post about a neighbors horse that died after
eating starthistle.

My wifes Arab was born and raised in N. CA foothills above Oroville.  This
is prime Starthistle territory.  I have watched him eat the stuff like
candy, thorns and all!  The goats on the property love it too.

Is it posionous?  What treatment is there for it?

-Erick-

PS:  I'll not let Astros eat the stuff again until I find out if it will
cause him harm.
