 Wanted to know if you had any success with it? Did it help with weight gain and overall performance? Thinking about trying it for my gelding who needs to put on about 75-100 lbs. Just got him about 2 months ago and he has improved some on my feed, but  still looks unconditioned and under weight. I am feeding him about 6 lbs of sweet feed, platinum performance and gastroade twice daily. plus hay. My other horses look great. This was suggested, just don't know much about it....

I really like it. Don't know about weight gain but it helped with my horses digestive issues..He always had issues with his stomach, colic, and runny poop.  Since Forco, no problems.  As far as weight gain, I feed a product by MVP called Pro weight.  Good luck

ok... thanks. I saw some before and after pics on the site and the horses looked like they really improved their weight.

I've been feeding it since 2006. Good product and works great with any of the THE products.

You can't have a healthy horse without a healthy gut.

I've been feeding it for almost a year. I have noticed a difference in my hard keeper young mare with it but not so much with my older mare. I believe it helps her, but it's not a miracle cure. The biggest difference I have noticed has been in their hair coat! I can just run my fingers through all their manes and tails!

It helped me bulk up my hard to keep mare. The way I understood it is that it helps them break down and utilize the nutrients in their grain and other supplements.

I just started it three days ago! The horses LOVE it, it's nice to have a product that they gobble up without having to mask it. Will post before and after 30 days pictures

Any horse that is on my property gets it.  I won't lie-the biggest reason I use it is as a bit of a preventative for colic.  Grasshopper is colic prone and since I started on it over a year and a half ago, not one issue.

I want to start my horses on FORCO but unfortunately no one sells it in my area. What sites does everyone purchase their product from?

There are quite a few BB's that sell it.
It gets sent directly from FORCO to the customer.
I'm a dealer along with Amy Laymon and Jeri Martin.
Many of the benefits of FORCO can't be seen. My latest horse had a lot of gas and loose stools but otherwise looked great. He no longer has gas or loose stools.
Many horses that can't gain weight is because their gut flora is out of balance so for those people most will see a weight gain.
FORCO isn't a "miracle" cure. It's a great product that balances the gut flora and you can't have a healthy horse without having a healthy gut.
