Feral Horse Care is the company behind the brand names Vitalbix and Skincalmin.
Vitalbix stands for feeding in a way that aligns with the natural eating behavior of your horse. Many health problems are caused by an unnatural way of feeding, including digestive issues, metabolic problems, and behavioral problems. Proper nutrition can prevent many issues.

Skincalmin is specially developed for horses with skin problems such as (allergic) itch. The products have proven effectiveness against sweet itch, greasy heel, and mud fever.
Several factors play a role in the development of sweet itch, greasy heel, and mud fever, including genetics, overall condition, reduced immunity, nutrition, stress, and environmental factors. For optimal results, it is important to consider the entire picture and address the problem from both inside and outside.
Please note: Itch in horses can be caused by lice, mites, fungi, or a worm infection. Always consult a veterinarian first in case of sudden itching to rule out such health problems. Horses with itch may be allergic to dust mites, pollen, grass, grass mites, certain foods, insects, etc. A blood test can provide clarity on this. The treatment plan can then be tailored accordingly.
Achieving optimal results begins with a good foundation. Take timely measures and ensure your horse has good immunity and condition. It is important to relieve the immune system as much as possible and optimize your horse's metabolism and gut flora.
Vitalbix and Skincalmin are part of Feral Horse Care's 12-step plan against sweet itch. Learn more HERE.
