If your horse chews wood he is telling you he needs nutrition! For more Horsemanship videos go to handyhorseman.com. for online Horsemanship consultations contact me at Whfarmhorses@gmail.com

I absolutely love your videos regarding the health and wellness of horses. From the oats to the baking soda to the muddy creek water to the minerals. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
FROM OZ .When I had horses and ponies , I noticed that they would not eat grass growing in horse manure. I would find a very fresh manure , making a soup of it by stirring in a bucket of cold water . Taking a branch from a bush would splash the mix on anything I didn't want them to eat, rails and my favourite trees .
My horses have been chewing wood for years. One started and taught the rest. They do it out of boredom and it’s the most aggravating problem I’ve dealt with! They are in hot wire but even chew the fence posts between the wires, some of them right in half. I’ve tried every trick in the book to get them to stop, including multiple types of trace minerals. The vet pulled mineral panels on them and nothing is amiss. I’m at a loss honestly!
😊thank you
Great video!
I'm grateful to you, thank you, sir.
Great! Thank you for sharing!!!
thank you very much sir!!!!
Horses don’t chew wood strictly out of boredom?
Answer: Get the horse out of the closed stall. Provide a herd setting for the horse. Allow the horse to graze. Let the horse be a horse instead of bored out of his mind.
Google why horses are board and chew wood.
I use DAC products. Can you provide the name of the DAC mineral free choice? One of my horses has been eating wood -- they are on good pasture and are fed well, but just one of them may need some extra mineral. Thank you.
I am in Oregon and can not find free choice trace minerals anywhere! Can someone please point me in the right direction? I went to feeddac.com but all of their minerals come with scoops and directions are given as top dressings. I am confused.🤔
Give it more food
Nice video. As a suggestion, it would be great you do not focus on USA company examples but to put also some European name after making a search as an expert. Remember, not only americans are watching your videos!😉
Its called a cribbing collar
