Location: Texas | Have you fed it and did you like it? I'm currently feeding MG 12/8 and thought about changing. I looked at Safe Choice Performance which I think is 14/9 |

Location: LaBelle, Florida | I have fed Safe Choice and am currently feeding it.
My horses have always done well on it.
I have a 3 year old filly about 900 lbs (cutting bred) and she is only getting about 1 lb 2x a day and is in good shape. Not currently being ridden at the moment but when she is being ridden I bump her up to 2lb 2x a day, along with good quality hay and some pasture.

Location: Wonderful Wyoming | I have fed Safechoice, most of their formulas and liked them especially the Perform. I did however switch to ADM PrimeGLO and SeniorGLO this summer and have been very happy. I don't plan to switch back, but I do think Safechoice is a decent feed, easily found and affordable. ADM I have 2 hrs to get it, but we go that way anyways for cow feed. |

Location: Red Raiderland | I feed my barrel horses SafeChoice-Perf. but their main source of food is alfalfa. The 4 I have on SC-P seem to do nicely on it and even my picky mare likes it. I do add Platinum to each feeding, too. |

| Safechoice Perform is awesome and made my hard keeper look like a million bucks however he became snorty and spooky and paranoid so I had to switch him back to Safechoice Original. He still looks great(not as good as he looked on the SC Perform though) and is back to his calm, laid back usual self. |

I'm glad you said something about this. I was thinking about switching from the orignal to the perform but I was worried my gelding would get too hot. I guess I won't be switching now. |

| I use it and love it. My horses look great. Even my hard keeper has filled out and looks and acts like he feels so much better. |

Location: Kiel, WI | Just bought a hard keeper and will be starting in this feed. Fed a bag of ultium and didn't see a difference so hoping this helps. He also seemed like he was hot on the ultium. I will be feeding half original and half perform to see how he does |

I also think its a good bang for the buck. I first tried the ADM Seniorglo but for some odd reason it gave my horse the runs plus I had to drive over 100 miles to get it. I think its a great feed though. I switched to Safechoice Senior and really like it. Plus I like the unlimited Nutrena coupons I get.  |

Interesting....what differences have you seen in the Pro Force Fuel vs. the SC Original? |

I just started it is yesterday. I am hoping to more of a topline and rounder butt. I have before pictures and I will post after. My horses are 6 yr old stud, coming 2 year old dilly, and 2 brood mares ages 5 and 6 |

| I feed the safe choice original and alfalfa pellets! Looks and feels great! I was feeding strategy for years and I'm much happier with SC. |

| I had to feed safe choice because the place I had my horses was feeding it. My horses never did well on it or look good. Switched to something else and thought I would go back and try the perform. After a while on that they wouldn't even eat it. I have not been impressed with Nutrena. Have two horses on Progressive Nutrition and another on ADM and much happier with those feeds. |

Location: your guess is as good as mine | Love the SC Performance...only reason I switched my 2 younger ones from it to SC Senior is lack of storage space, and my 28yo HAS to have the senior. |

| I fed SCP all last year/winter. I didn't see any difference between it and the original. I was feeding what I felt like was a lot for being on hay or pasture 24/7. I ended up going to a 14% sweet feed from the local elevator and cut my feed in half. They quit making it and I just recently switched to ADM Patriot. My horses are looking fanatastic going into winter and they are SHINY! Their haircoat and body condition looks great and they have only been on it for a couple months. |

Location: Piedmont, OK | I feed it and my horses all look great on it. My vet and a friend highly recommend the new proforce by nutrena but it doesn't have as much fat and I dont want my hard keeper losing any weight. He looks great on the performance. |
