Product Description

Horses are not only prey animals, but also creatures of habit. Changes in their routine, such as moving to a new yard or the addition of a new group member, can make them just as nervous as unfamiliar events, such as attending a training clinic or competition, or unfamiliar noises like fireworks or the hunt passing in the nearby woods. It is naturally the role of the nervous system to regulate such exciting situations and keep stress hormones under control. OKAPI Calming Herbs are a pure herbal mixture that supports the nervous system in its task of responding appropriately to stressful situations, rather than panicking.

OKAPI Calming Herbs are suitable for adult horses of all ages and breeds.

OKAPI Calming Herbs can be easily combined with other products. We recommend combining it with OKAPI Relax.

Feeding recommendations

We recommend giving the OKAPI Calming Herbs ideally one to two weeks before a planned “exciting” event, for a total duration of 14 days.

OKAPI Calming Herbs can be given dry over the feed or brewed as tea.

How do I calculate the correct dosage for my horse?

To calculate the appropriate amount of OKAPI Calming Herbs for your horse, follow these steps:

1. Determine your horse’s weight:
The horse’s weight can be measured using a scale, weight tape, or apps like the BCI App from our partner Sanoanimal, available for free on Google Play and Apple Store).

2. Use the feeding recommendation as your starting point:
The general recommendation for OKAPI Calming Herbs is based on a 600 kg horse. The recommended daily amount is 30 g to 50 g (approximately one handful).

3. Adjust the amount to your horse’s weight:
For example, for a horse weighing 300 kg:
50 g ÷ 600 kg × 300 kg = 25 g per day

This calculation can be used to determine the appropriate amount for horses of different weights.

- 500g sufficient for approximately 10–14 days
- 1,000g sufficient for approximately 3–6 weeks
- 3,000g sufficient for multiple horses
