I'm not a huge fan of calmers for a few reasons but when Tanith was on box rest I bought some Magic. TBH I never noticed a difference but just kept telling myself she would be worse without it.
Then when I moved yards I lobbed some in Tanith & Shiraz's feeds and it was one of my friends that commented how calm Shiraz looked (her exact words were that she looked spaced out ) so I thought that maybe after 9yrs (3 with me) and having explored every route possible calmer was the thing to stick with. We'd tried steady up before (when it was like the only calmer available back in the dark ages) and it didn't work.
So she's been on magic for 2 weeks now and she's back to normal (weaving until she falls over or slips, just being a general pain in the at times) so what else should I try? She's been blood tested and has no deficiences so she doesn't really need a calmer (one of the reasons I don't like their use) but not sure what else to try?
Also was wondering if anyone had tried these:

It's the same ingredients as magic (apart from herbs and limestone) so is it worth a shot when it's so cheap?
Any help appreciated
