Chamomile

Chamomile, derived from the plant Matricaria chamomilla, is a flowering herb that is primarily found in Europe and parts of Asia and North America. The dried flowers are traditionally used for their calming properties and are popular in herbal teas and natural remedies. In agriculture and animal care, chamomile also finds its way as a natural remedy for various animal species.

For dogs, chamomile can help alleviate anxiety and stress, for example during thunderstorms or other fright responses. It can also be used in skincare products for dogs to soothe irritations and inflammations. In chickens, chamomile is sometimes added to feed to promote healthy digestion and reduce stress during times of change, such as relocations or changes in the coop.

For horses, chamomile can be useful in promoting relaxation and supporting digestion. It can be offered in the form of tea or as a supplement to support the overall well-being of the horse. Although chamomile is considered a natural remedy, it is always advisable to consult a veterinarian before applying it.
