Hair eating is often linked to a mineral deficiency, but it can stem from boredom. Pat Coleby recommends seaweed meal, also known as kelp meal, in her book Natural Horse Care.

Feeding kelp meal can limit or eliminate some unwanted behaviors including mane and tail chewing, wood chewing and even cribbing because of its naturally high and balanced levels of minerals. I have used it for years and seen huge improvements in my horses.

You need to do something to sooth the itch on his tail. The other thing to do is wrap up his tail, so he can rub it, but it doesn't rub off the hair. However, I don't really like this option because it is depriving the horse of his ability to relieve his itch. You wouldn't like it if you were itchy, but you weren't allow to scratch it. So that should be a last option.

Where is the bald eagle endangered?

On June 28, 2007 the Interior Department took the American bald eagle off the Endangered Species List. The bald eagle will still be protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. The Bald Eagle Protection Act prohibits the take, transport, sale, barter, trade, import and export, and possession of eagles, making it illegal for anyone to collect eagles and eagle parts, nests, or eggs without a permit. Native Americans are able to possess these emblems which are traditional in their culture.
