Guest guest Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 Betsy....Yes you can give Lobelia to your goat. The amount given would be different than the amount given to the average human. Would have to be figured according to the goats weight Mary O - " bokonski " <okonskis <herbal remedies > Wednesday, January 14, 2004 6:26 AM Herbal Remedies - lobelia for goat > With all the talk about how wonderful lobelia is for lung problems in > people, I am wondering if I can give it to my goat, who is battling > pneumonia.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 Hi Betsy, Your chickens have worms? If they will eat it you can give it to them. Though I am not sure why you wish to give your chickens wormwood. Interesting concept though and brings up some rather good ideas for the poor mans genetic manipulation of the Thanksgiving Turkey. Just start feeding the turkey sage or which ever spice. Then you won't need to put it on......Never mind. Getting carried away here. LOL Don Q. - bokonski herbal remedies Friday, January 16, 2004 1:58 PM Re: Herbal Remedies - lobelia for goat Hi Suzi,No, I'm not cooking the TT - I guess steep is the wrong word, isn't it? It is "cooking" in my refrigerator :-). I tried the TT myself this morning - I rather like it. It burns less than taking cayenne powder straight in water. On the other hand, I had to make it with jalapenos, not habaneros, because that was all I could get at the time. My next batch will probably be much hotter. We'll see what Molly (the goat) thinks... !Let me ask you, too - do you happen to know if I can give wormwood to my chickens?Betsyherbal remedies , Suzanne <suziesgoats> wrote:> > > bokonski <okonskis@j...> wrote:Hi Suzi,> > No, I haven't yet, although that had crossed my mind.
