I really hope they take to it. I love the idea of being grain free and saving some $$

I don't feed the TC RB but I do feed BB Omega, its everything they need as far as vit and minerals and pre/pro biotics... It was a game changer for me, you only feed 1 1/2 lbs am and pm to the horses working, the others get about a lb am and pm.  I was big on oats, corn, and that heck, I loved sweet feed... but once I pulled back on NSC I could see a difference, not only in their look but even my old guy who is 20 gets around so much better!  and they love it... hopefully yours start to love it!

So my horses just do not like TC30 ... they are leaving it in their feed buckets ... again.  So frustrating! I never thought I had picky horses . . I'm only feeding 1/2lb in the am and 1/2lb in the pm..  we took a walk thru my closest feed store warehouse yesterday and I saw that they carry Progressive grass balancer RB I ended up purchasing a bag, come to find out its almost $6 cheaper than TC too! I gave a handful to my boys last night and they gobbled it right up! It smells completely different from the TC. I hope this one will work out better for them. This feed store is so much closer for me.. just found out they became a blue bonnet dealer as well! Now I'm just waiting to see if they'll become a hay rite dealer so I can get my alfalfa cubes there too. He told me theyll either get hayrite or omnis cubes, theyve had a lot of people asking for them. 

I use the TC 30 as a supplement on a couple, I dont use it alone, I add a cup full to their feed and they do eat it all, I do have a very picky eater and he takes all day to eat his feed, he has always been this way and with anything I feed him so I am always trying to find that feed that he'll love but he's been more of a hay guy, he'll eat on his hay better then feed, the TC I'll add to his feed, now the others no problem but like I was saying I feed it as a supplement, I smell all feed and supplements too and the TC 30 dont really have a great smell, lol..I may go back to the Calf Manna for him and see if the old man will eat it better.. But heck he dont like anything, he does have the run of the place out here so hes eating grass, hay.. But he does eat and like the cheap feed I feed the goats out here, he'll go find the goat feed and munch on it and then go back to the special feed I have for him and pick at it, uggggg..The feed I feed the goats is a all stock feed so it dont have anything specila added to it..

Try the Bluebonnet Boost Em, it is their version but better of the calf manna. I had one customers mare on the TC 30. She was suppost to be an easy keeper. To me she fell off with it. I liked her better on the TC lite. I personally feed all mine Bluebonnet. Either Senior Therapy, Equilene Complete or Energized for some of our retired pasture horses that are easy keepers.

When Andy gos in to get my goat feed I'll get him to pick up a bag of boost'em, I forgot all about this one, lol, this is my old man thats retired (26), well they all are now since I dont go anywhere anymore, hes the one I got on Elite Senior Care, but got to picking so Dr. Huffman told me to try the TC Senior on him and he really wont eat that feed, so went back to his senior care adding the tc 30, but I will try the boost'em, everybody else eats like theres no tommorow, my IR gelding is still on his  TC Lite and looks great, but just this one thats being a butthead about anything and everything.. Thanks for suggesting the boost'em..

Is Calf Manna considered a ration balancer? I know our TSC has it all the time.. not sure how fresh they keep it but it's there. I fed this morning and I just gave them 1/2lb of the Progressive .. I didnt add anything else .. i usually throw a scoop of renew gold in with it and a oz of fasttrack in the mornings but I wanted to see if they'd actually just eat the progressive.. my pickiest old man sniffed it first, I swear he thinks I'm trying to poison him lol! Then he ate it all up. They all did. Fingers crossed theyll keep it up. It seems like a really nice RB. They make 1 for grass and 1 for alfalfa based diets. Since I feed mostly grass hay and just a little of the alfalfa cubes, they suggested grass balancer. I'm kind of getting over my supplements obsession and wanting/needing to get back to simplicity! I still have that 25lb bucket of platinum I've got to get thru but after I'm done with that, I think I'm going to just try and feed the RB and alfalfa cubes and see how they do. No special supps unless they absolutely need it, which they probably wont, I like to keep a bucket of forco or fastrack around in case of diarrhea or something like that but my feed room is looking like a science lab... too much "fluff" laying around. If theyll actually eat the recommended amount of the progressive they should get all their needs met. Right now these horses are FAT as in FAT, not as in PHAT! lol! Our pasture keeps on growing we just shredded again I have to limit their time out there, I hate stalling them on such pretty days but I'm honestly concerned how much they gained just from eating off the pasture 

So far so good on the Progressive RB they are actually happy to eat it! I have a question hopefully someone can answer. Since my guys are really overweight and have been switched from a high fat feed to this RB (1lb a day) and now I'm limiting their turnout on the pasture to only 2-3 hours a day, plus theyve started getting worked lightly ... if I dont ride, I lunge for 15-20 minutes to start them back. I am wondering if I should keep my grass hay in front of them all day while stalled or limit it throughout the day. I feed hay out of a slow feed net. I dont like the idea of them being without forage while stalled up. They pick at it for a few hours during their stalled time but every morning when I go to feed they have cleaned it all up completely. My nets will hold 3-5 large flakes. Just a little peek at the chubby-ness I'm dealing with lol!
