I Need a Xanax!

| I've used vegetable oil and canola oil on and off for 10 years and never really saw any impressive results so I am looking for a better oil even though I know its much more expensive. Has anyone used Cocosoya oil? DAC oil? Healthy Coat oil? Triple Crown Rice Bran oil? |

Location: Central California | I have been using DAC OIL and DAC ORANGE for over 2 years. Love both products. The Oil will put weight on one for sure and their coat is beautiful. I buy the big 5 gal pale of the oil and the pump that goes with it. Each horse gets one pump twice a day. |

Location: Stephenville, TX | Love cocosoya and its reasonable. My hard keepers coats have turned a shade darker and shiny, they have weight in places they have never had it. People have been asking me what I feed. I've used rice bran before for colts and a pssm horse and had good results but now I give the pssm one low starch total equine and cocosoya with good results. |

Thank you. The DAC Orange is a complete vitamin/mineral supplement right? I have read nothing but good things about DAC oil. |

I have not looked at the lables on either as close as I have my other feed, but from what my friend tells me the two are basically the same except the Dac Oil has more fat which puts the weight on and the Orange is the complete vitamin. What I have done in the last 3 months is change up my feed program to help those who are in need of weight and those who really need to drop a few pounds, plus I suspect I have at least one who is mild PSSM. So every one is now on 10 pounds of alfalfa cubes twice a day then each one gets around a 1 1/2 pounds of Senior Stable Mix added to that morning and night. At night I add 2 pounds of Nutrena Safe Choice Special Care.
The hard keepers get one pump of oil twice a day, the easy keepers one pump once a day.
After reading the lables on both the Nutrena and Stable Mix and doing the math so to speak I have not added any other vitamins to my program. As it turns out my cost is a little higher than I thought it would be, 5 horses is costing me right at $600 a month. But I have no waisted hay and everyone is looking great and acting even better. My problem PSSM horse is doing so much better than he was. |

I agree with the Healthy Coat as well
Wow, lots of votes for Healthy Coat! The reason I haven't already bought a jug is that the ingredients show a mixture of soybean oil and some others and I sure wouldn't want to be paying $22 per gallon for soybean oil that I can buy as vegetable oil at Walmart for $7 per gallon. Comments on this? |

| And here is the guaranteed analysis for the DAC oil....I just realized it has corn oil and soybean oil in it too. I want to give DAC Oil or Healthy Coat a shot but I want to make sure I'm not just buying really expensive corn and vegetable oil.
