I'm looking for something to add to my 3yo's diet to help him fill out. He's 16hh and hip high, still growing and is at that spindly looking age. I want to find something to help his topline, muscle, etc He was underweight and in bad shape when I bought him. I feed RG with Oats and Alfalfa grass hay. He looks a ton better just need something to add that extra dazzle

THE Muscle Mass. I used it on my HUS horse. I'll try and post a picture of him as an ugly gangly 15.2 hand long yearling (Nov 5th) to a 16 hand 2yr old a yr later (Sep 19th).

I don't use any supplements becAuse I haven't found any to make a big difference but I've found that Timothy or alfalfa cubes soaked every night help a lot along with lots and lots of extra hay. I also feed coco soya oil from tractor supply, it's a coconut oil base that has all the omega fatty acids, their coats also look amazing on it!!
