	I have a 8 yr old i just bought that is a little under weight and just scraggly looking.. he isnt slick, he mane and tail are just ugly and he is shedding but not all together, he looks very ugly. i feed proforce fiber which is 14 fiber and 12 fat. any vitamins or oils any one suggest? i want him to slick out and look nice because he is going to be so pretty once he looks good. ive only had him about 2 weeks now and i havent seen my feed do anything dramatic to his looks and his weight (but that could just be me) my other horses look fine on it. just not slick and shinny. please help!!

Neat Freak Posts: 11216 Location: Wonderful Wyoming	T.H.E has a great daily supplement called Muscle Mass that helps with weight gain and you can add special formulas to help with hair & coat. I use that blend with joint and ulcer prevent on my show horse. It is made with flax and has the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids and naturally occuring probiotics that they need. You can get 2 1/2 months worth for less than 95 cents a day. I'll pm you more details and a link to my website that has pictures of my colt from when I got him and first put him on it to now.

Extreme Veteran Posts: 477 Location: Lost in the swamps	I currently have one in flax seed oil, used less than 1/2 the gallon and are already seeing massive results!! He went from Winter fur and dull, to slick and shinny in less than a month! And of corse pleanty of elbow grease to distribute those oils thru out their coat. Have a customers on just rice bran and feed for weight,he is fatter but coat results have been much slower.
