How To Feed Dandelion Leaves

This product can be mixed with your horses daily feed at the following amounts:

  • Small Horse (Under 450kg) - 25g per day, this can be split between feeds or given at once
  • Large Horse (450kg+) - 50g per day, this can be split between feeds or given at once

Feeding as an Infusion

Many herbs, including Dandelion Leaves, can be fed as an Infusion, this helps the active ingredients become more readily available and more easily absorbed by your horse. 

  1. Put the daily required amount of herbs in a bucket (quantities stated above)
  2. Add 1/2 pint (300ml) of boiling water to the herbs, mix and then allow to cool
  3. When cooled, the whole infusion (including the herbs) can be used to dampen down your horses feed.

If you don't have access to a kettle you can just soak your herbs overnight and this will also help your horse absorb the natural vitamins, minerals & active ingredients.
