Elite Veteran Posts: 679 Location: The Republic of Texas	jewels - 2015-04-20 12:10 PM my husband & I have started calling it Total Decline. If you have great pasture & hay & horse is a fairly easy keeper then yes it will work. We switched about a year ago on a couple of horses. Mine - is not really a go getter anyways but had no energy at all. So it took her off after a few months. The other we left on b/c she can be hyper & not focused - it did help with those things but this winter when the grass is not good she really fell apart. She was getting decent hay. Not the best but same as our other horses & she looked the worst. We took her off & she is finally looking good. I am currently looking for something better. IDK what I will switch to but I am not a fan of this product. I have to totally disagree, I have a 22 yr old and even he did great on it with plenty of muscle and fat. he can get pretty hot on almost anything so it worked well for him. I have had only one horse that didn't do well on it, but she didn't do well on hardly anything. fyi: this is stalled except one hour turnout everyday with decent hay. but I am picky like that so...IMHO

I Love the Oldies Posts: 3767 Location: Central Washington	We use it & like it.....even for hard keepers. We have a 25 yr retired head horse and he does just fine on it with quality grass/alfalfa hay.

Owners are all jazzed up about keeping them on it until they see them start to look better after switching for just a month. Their horses also have poor hoof growth and no shine to their coats. Never fed it myself but 3 different owners and horses and this was the case. I had similar issues with it. Horses didn't really look bad, but they were easy keepers. But they had no energy. I have a friend that feeds it and recommend it to everyone and her husband is a dealer, yet they always need to keep them on a fat supplement. I liked some things about it, but with the cost and lack of overall WOW in my horses, I switched. I'm kind of inbetween feeds now. I would love to try Blue bonnet, but have only found 1 dealer in CO and she is about 4 hrs from me.
