What's your favorite type of feed to feed and why? :)

I feed Triple Crown Senior. High fat, low starch. Still has the energy that I need for competition. My horse gets very lethargic on sweets and grains. Since moving to the Senior he has alot more energy. He also did well on Ultium but he is a choker so I wanted to stay away from the pellets. My horse is not a senior. He is 12.

We don't have a Triple Crown dealer here but I used to feed the Sr when I lived near one. Weanlings are on Equine Jr, Broodies are on Safechoice Sr (not currently in foal) and young horses are on a 12% pellet for maintenance until they are being worked heavily and then they'll go to a higher fat and protein feed. They all have free choice Coastal hay. Everyone except the weanlings are on Pat Coleby's mineral mix.

We are going to be using Renew Gold, Triple Crown 30 and FinishLine. I got some free ssamples of all the above at a barrel race and in a month I sure saw a nice bloom on my horses without them being hot. Only a pound per day of the first two and a scoop of the last. So is a great bang for my buck. I also use Silver Lining & THE for certain horses and LOVE them as well

I'm on the TC bandwagon as well. I've fed this for about 5 years now and love it. It's a high quality feed, and I won't switch because mine do so well on it.

I forgot to add that I do add the Triple Crown 30 in with the senior because my guy gets a tad below the minimum requirements. The TC 30 will boost it up some.
