Agnus castus dried berries
​
A horse may select  Agnus Castus when presenting the following symptoms:
  • Unseasonal heats, marish behaviour
  • Cushings/PPID


  • Facebook

 There is a significant amount of anecdotal evidence to suggest that when Agnus Castus berries (also called Chaste berries for obvious reasons!) are fed to a horse when not selected (ie hidden in feed) then a horse may become very aggressive. However, when these berries are offered and selected they have proven to be highly effective. Another reason why to give your horse the choice! In my experience when mare's select Agnus Castus berries they actually only need a small amount to get their hormonal system back into balance hence the smaller size purchasing option.

Agnus castus berries was also reputed to be given to Monks  upon entering the monastery as they are considered an anaphrodisiac. This gave the berries the colloquial name -  Monk's Pepper! 

Also consider:
  • German Chamomile essential oil - in the case of Cushings
  • Seaweed dried herb - in the case of Cushings
  • Seaweed Extract - in the case of Cushings
.Applied Zoopharmacognosy and offering plant extracts is not a substitute for veterinary care.
Consult your vet if you have any concerns for the welfare of an animal in your care
Always allow an animal to remove itself from an aroma and never put plant extracts in your animals feed
​ and always offer in a well-ventilated area
