Anyone give coconut oil to their horses as a way to give extra calories? My guy in allergic to EVERYTHING. Literally.

I'm looking for way to help keep his weight up and looking/feeling his best. Anyone have experience with it? Thanks!!

Google it. Savvy Horsewoman (I think) gives reasons to feed it to horses. There was some other stuff to look at to.

That's going to be expensive. I can tell you that. I don't use it for my horses but as a hairstylist I use it some and it's fairly pricey for just a small jar.

The CocoSoy oil from Uckele is pretty good stuff. It helps with digestion too.

I don't think cocosoya would be good for a horse with allergies. It's unrefined coconut oil and soybean oil and it's loaded with artificial ingredients

Have you looked at CoolStance? I believe it is coconut meal based. I don't know what else it haves though

The company who makes Coolstance also makes a supplement called Powerstance...Coolstance is the feed product they have and Powerstance is the supplement. Powerstance is pure powdered coconut oil. I fed it for years, but I moved away from my dealer and it got more difficult for me to get and I quit using it. It was a really good supplement and had a lot of benefits. I believe the company is Stance Equine, they used to have a website, you might check them out.

I feed coconut oil to my horses... 1/3 cup daily... I buy it in bulk and put it in a baby bottle warmer and mix with their oats. It's not any more expensive than Healthy Coat and I get great results. My gelding has allergies and he does fine on the coconut oil.

Renew Gold uses coconut meal in it's formulation. This contributes about 9% coconut oil in it's natural state, not as a refined oil. I am not a fan of refined oils added to a diet, but love them in their natural state.

 I just started Renew Gold. I was feeding coconut flakes but they were expensive and had to be mixed w/ other stuff. My one horse LOVES the RG and the other absolutely refused to eat it no matter what, go figure.
