Re: [RC] help with new horse - Sky RanchI have an Arabian mare that's allergic to alfalfa - she breaks out in hives and 'bumps' all over her, if she gets alfalfa hay. She's 25 yrs old, Crabbet lines. Definitely could be an allergy.

(I have one horse who seemed sensitive to even the small amount in an alfalfa-based supplement.) http://www.mannapro.com/horses_main.htm Might also consider the remote possibility that she's sensitive to the niacin - in humans, even normal doses can cause a transient flushing and itching (depending on the form used). Some people are exquisitely sensitive, others it doesn't bother at all. http://www.twydil.com/en-twyd/tools2/3.vit/fr4vit25.htm http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002409.htm Patti K Vail AZI also= started her on Manna Pro's ShoHoof & she itches when eating= that, even at 1/4th the dose.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
