I’m a long term Feedmark customer, but this is the first time that I’ve purchased Chastetree Berry.
I am feeding it to my 23yo Cushing’s mare who has been on vet prescribed Prascend for over 10 years, latterly on 2 tablets a day. Unfortunately she no longer tolerates the Prascend, and has had to come off it.
A month into feeding the Chastetree Berry as a herbal substitute, and fingers crossed that she is doing well on it.

I use this on my 24 year old horse who is probably verging on cushings.  Since feeding him this product his coat is the best it’s ever been and he doesn’t look 24, he would easily pass for 18!

My vet advised me to try Chasteberry on my 21-year-old pony with recently diagnosed Cushings (on top of existing EMS).  This has worked amazingly well and he has been free of symptoms since last Autumn, and she was very pleased with his condition when she saw him last week.  Last year he had repeated bouts of laminitis, this year he has been so much better.  I bought a different brand and he started getting footy, so I ordered a tub from Feedmark and he has recovered very quickly.

I have a very hormonal mare, would this stop her coming into season?

Chastetree Berry won’t stop your mare coming into season, but it can help to maintain more stable hormone levels through oestrus, which will keep behaviour more settled. For the best support for hormonal mares we recommend that you look at Hormonease.

 

My gelding is riggy, and at times his behaviour is very stallion like, is this only used for mares, or can it help geldings too?

Chastetree Berry can help to maintain normal hormone responses, and can be fed to riggy geldings as well as hormonal mares. It is included as an ingredient in Feedmark Hormonease.

 

My pony struggles to shed his winter coat, I was told this supplement could help?

For older horses and ponies that may struggle with coat loss, this herb can help to maintain normal shedding patterns. If you have a horse or pony that has been diagnosed with Cushing's you may be interested in C-Plus™.
