Horsemen’s Laboratory Review

Tweet

In a recent article “Parasite Resistance In Horses And Chemical Deworming” I discussed why parasite resistance in horses is rapidly growing worldwide and why it’s not something to take lightly.

I also gave you some strategies and a list of actions you should take as a horse owner.  One of those actions is to perform routine fecal egg counts (FEC) on your horse(s).

This review will be short, sweet and to the point.

Today I’m introducing a company to you that I feel is playing a huge role in helping to minimize parasite resistance in our horses.  Not only that, but by default, the services they provide help our environment as well.

The company is Horsemen’s Laboratory and their motto is  “We have made it simple to determine if your horse really has worms! We have put together kits that include a sturdy container, plastic bag and a prepaid self-addressed envelope.”

It couldn’t get any easier than that!

Please listen to my video below for more on what I have to say about Horsemen’s Laboratory and then follow the directions at the end of this article if you would like to participate in our giveaway.

Giveaway Details

Update: The product giveaway ended March 24th, 2010.

Now that you know more about the importance of performing FEC tests on your horse(s) and you know more about Horsemen’s Laboratory, I have a feeling you will want to try them out.

We will be giving away 5 sets of 2 FEC kits (this is a $26 value per set).  If you win, Horseman’s Laboratory will send you your kits directly.  After you provide us your contact information, we will inform Horseman’s Laboratory of the winners and the kits will be sent out.

The contest will work a lot like a raffle.  The more tickets you buy (in this case you perform certain tasks) the more chances you have to win.

Rather than calling them “points” or “tickets” we are going to use the concept of “tokens”. The more tokens you have, the greater your chance is of winning a FEC kit.  Note:  the terms and conditions below.

How do you earn tokens?

Adding a comment in the comment area below, will earn you one token.

3) Click Here To Tweet about this giveaway on Twitter and then go leave a comment that links to your Twitter update! = Three Tokens

The combination of both a comment and a link to your tweet will give you three tokens.
