Opinions please. Have a horse on Tribute Calm and EZ but after the feed contamination lawsuit, want to change. Ultium or Blue Bonnet Intensify 14/8 pellet is the two Im thinking about switching to. I feed Alfalfa and Timothy hay.
I have not fed Ultium so no opinions on that but I do feed Bluebonnet Intensify pellets and I have also fed Bluebonnet Intensify Omega Force. Both are great but the Intensify pellets are about $3.00 cheaper per bag. As I am not doing much competing I switched to the Bluebonnet Intensify pellets and only feed the minimum requirements as I also feed the Omnis Complete cube. Very happy with the way the look. If I can ever get back into competing I will feed the Bluebonnet Intensify Omega Force.
I am feeding my 3 year old Ultium Growth, she has been on it since she was born. She looks great. I get compliments on her all the time. Nice shiny coat, dapples in her sorrel coat, she is built and looks more like a 4 or 5 yr old right now. I only feed 1 scoop a day. I will most likely switch her to Ultium once she is done growing. She does not get hot or seem anxious and is also out on pasture 24/7.
I have fed Ultium and Ultium growth for years. I always like the results I get with it. It is also easy to find and as far as I recall, purina hasn't had any issues with feed contamination.
We can't get blue bonnet in CA. But I have fed ultium off and on for years. Unless my horses were getting worked hard the ultium made them bat S### crazy. But they looked amazing doing it! Best best best Feed ever for me has been triple crown senior!!! They went to crap when nutrena took over by they are back to milling their own feed since May and I have had nothing but excellent results with it, consistent and fresh feed. My harder keepers get more , easy keepers less but they all look amazing on it and don't get hot.
