🙌🏼Don’t give up on seedy toe, it will only get worse. Why not try some ‘Black Healer’? 🙌🏼

🐎Black healer contains KmNo4 (Potassium permanganate). This has been used for centuries to successfully treat skin conditions. At the concentration in Black Healer, Potassium permanganate is safe to use to treat horses’ hooves.

Handy Hints:

🌵Keep your horses’ feet as dry and as clean as possible whilst treating seedy toe to prevent chances of re infection. Remove horses from paddocks with dams, septic or mud.

⛈️If conditions are wet, consider moving your horse or soaking the affected foot in strong salt water to dry it out and keep your horse in a dry stable or shed for at least 12 hours a day. When turning out into damp paddocks you can treat, wrap and boot the foot to keep it as dry as possible.
In cold weather black healer can be quite stiff. Warm in hands before applying to soften a little.

Reminder: Severely affected past seedy toe cases will scar and this weakens the area making it more prone to future infection.

Check resected area for signs of spread or missed areas using a hoof knife at each four week trim.

❤️‍🩹Example of Treatment summary:

Day 1: Resect hoof wall back to healthy hoof tissue.

Day 1-3: Scrub area with hydrogen peroxide, rinse with 50/50 methylated spirits and water. Keep affected area open to the air and keep the horse in a dry environment.

Day 4-7: Flush area with 50/50 methylated spirits and water, towel dry and apply black healer as a thick smear.

Day 7- onwards: clean and reapply black healer as needed to keep the area covered against re infection until the cavity grows out.

🌧️ **North Queensland Wet Season Alert: Protect Your Horses!** 🌿

As the wet season rolls in, North Queensland's lush landscapes can become a haven for rapid w**d growth. While the greenery is beautiful, it can pose a risk to our beloved horses, especially those with photosensitivity.

**What is Photosensitivity?**
Photosensitivity in horses is a condition where their skin becomes overly sensitive to sunlight, often due to ingesting certain plants. This can lead to painful sunburns and skin irritations.

**Why the Wet Season Matters:**
**Increased W**d Growth:** The wet season encourages the growth of various w**ds, some of which can trigger photosensitivity.
**Common Culprits:** Plants like St. John's Wort and certain clovers are known to cause reactions.

**How to Protect Your Horses:**
1. **Regular Pasture Checks:** Keep an eye on your paddocks and remove any harmful w**ds.
2. **Provide Shelter:** Ensure your horses have access to shaded areas.
3. **Monitor Diet:** Be cautious of what your horses are grazing on.

**Boost Protection with Toxin Binders:**
**EAC InForce:** This toxin binder helps neutralize harmful substances in the gut, reducing the risk of photosensitivity reactions.
**Feedchar:** Known for its ability to bind toxins, Feedchar supports digestive health and helps prevent the absorption of harmful compounds.

Let's keep our horses safe and healthy this wet season! 🐴💚

🌞 Stay Cool and Hydrated in the Townsville Heat Wave! 🌞

Hey Feed 2 Go family! With the current heat wave in Townsville, it's crucial to keep our horses healthy and hydrated. Did you know that horses lose essential minerals when they sweat?

That's why electrolytes are so important! They help replenish those lost minerals and keep your horse's body functioning optimally. At Feed 2 Go, we stock EAC Osmolyte, a top-notch electrolyte supplement designed to support your horse's hydration and overall well-being.

Benefits of EAC Osmolyte:
