Is it okay to put a horse in a paddock with lots of them?

Confused

Well I don't think it would mind as long as the ppl don't start bollywood dancing and singing around it, id' be pretty freaked out with that! Laughing

I think you mean something other than Bindis? These are the little jewels that indian people wear in teh middle of the forehead between their eyes... Laughing

I've heard of bidibids, those little seedtype things that stick to your clothes..is this what you mean? Or is there something I haven't heard of?

Just thought it was funny anyway Very Happy

Ahhh! The dreaded Bindii! You can put your horse in a paddock with them, but you will end up spreading them everywhere as they will stick to your boots every time you go in the paddock and the horse will drag them out in his hooves. They are the WORST thing. Also, if there's heaps of them and horsey has nothing else to eat, they might try and eat them, can you imagine having a mouth full of Bindii prickles? If they can puncture a bike tire and go through thongs, imagine what they would do to your horses insides? If there's not too many, dig them out and put them in a chaff bag in the rubbish bin, but be careful you don't drop any prickles as you do it.

I dont think they'd be a problem unless you were concerned about them spreading. In regards to the horse eating them, im not sure if theyre toxic or not, but they wouldnt do much damaged to their insides, ours happily eat thistle if given the chance Confused
