No. Even though many people feed their horse peppermints they are not good for horses. They are pure sugar and are not healthy for horse. If you insist on feeding peppermints please feed in moderation.
yes and they love them! but because of all the sugar, they are bad for their teeth.
omg yes i live here down in good old teneesse and own my own ranch they can eat all the pepermints in the world and there actaully really good for em feed em a lot and thell love ya for ever
i think its because of the taste of the mint, maybe the horsees are attracted to the sweet taste of it
Yes, but in moderation. It is best to give horses horse food, not human food.
Horses can have altoiods it only depends on if they want to eat it.
Yes, animals and insects do eat peppermint. Peppermint is considered safe for most animals and insects, but it is also used as a deterrent in gardens for pests like mosquitoes and mice.
Yes
Horses are notoriously robust animals, hence the expression "healthy as a horse".
yess...my horse loves to eat just about everything safe she can get around....
As in "I am so hungry, I could eat a horse"- means you are extremely hungry- since a horse is VERY big.
Physically speaking, a horse is able to eat a human the way we eat animals. But it cannot, however, swallow you whole. But the chance of a horse attempting to eat you is pretty much zero because they are herbavores (plant eaters).
There really is no specific time you have to stop, but i'd say if you want healthy foals and a healthy horse after the fourth time.
Hay
"To eat like a horse" means to eat a LOT of food.
A healthy horse should drink 35-55 liters of water a day.
I have miniature donkey that I need to train and gain the trust of, and I've heard that they like mints. But I know that there's a whole lot of junk in them, and I want my donkey to be healthy. Is it okay to use mints as occasional treats? Also, can you recommend any other treats?
They can.
you should feed them a healthy diet of nubs, fubs, and gubbers.
Horses eat grass. Horses are herbivores, meaning they eat grass and other Plant. The typical diet for a normal, healthy horse is a combination of roughage (hay) and concentrates (grains).
If they're really strong mints I guess it is normal. If I eat really strong flavored mints or something my eyes water which makes me sneeze sometimes ;)
yes
Dogs can eat mints but if you feed them too many they might get sick. if you are concerned about your dogs breath you should brush their teeth properly with an old tooth brush Sure dogs can eat mints, A lot of dogs wont even touch it though. I have an English Bulldog that will take the little ice breaker mints and then foam at the mouth, it's funny. It is not safe for a dog to eat mints. In fact many "sweets" contain Xylitol which is poisonous to dogs. Dogs that eat Xilitol can develop a sudden drop in blood sugar, which can cause weakness, lethargy, loss of coordination, collapse and seizures. Symptoms can begin in as little as 30 minutes and last hours. It is recommended that pets that experience symptoms be taken to a veterinarian or local emergency clinic for evaluation.
I Wouldn't Say There Healthy, Because Of The Sugar They Have. But Hey Im Not Sure.
Absolutely not! If a horse eats a cereal box you should call an equine veterinarian immediately, this could be a life threatening situation.
