| We might be over thinking the whole feed/nutrition thing a bit.

I know a bunch of girls in Utah used to feed it, not sure if they still are. Last I heard they all loved it. |

I do agree. I just feed all stock sweet feed, it's more of a treat then anything. They all look amazing on just alfalfa/grass and pasture. I've been looking for a good grain, and all the people in our area are going crazy about Roasted to Perfection. I may just stick to what I have been feeding. |

honestly....if your horses look/feel great on alfalfa and pasture....stick with that and save yourself some $$$ |

Location: North Dakota | I *think* that's what my sister's horse was on before she bought him (we both knew him and rode him for a while before purchasing) and he did awesome on it. We weren't able to get it where we're at now though. |

You can survive on just about anything, but it sure might not be good for you.
I wouldn't raise my kids on candy bars, so you can bet that I won't be giving my barrel horse all-stock sweet feed. Fat does not equal healthy. |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | You have to roast (pop) the milo to make it safe to feed. It's a great feed tho. Nothing complicated about it, not any worse than processing other grains, just a different method than is used on corn oats and barley. |

Quite possibly so... I'm a little sensitive on this subject at the moment, because I've been told the same thing for the last several months. Now that I've made the changes I know that I was right. I hate seeing people make the same mistakes I did. We are all trying to do what's right for our horses and Arion is a bit of a pot stirrer. |

Soy has a great amino acid profile. It also is high in plant based estrogens. In moderation, I have never had a problem with it, but I can see where feeding too much would cause problems. I used to feed a ration balancer that the main ingredient was whole roasted soybeans along with rice bran, both locally sourced. My horses looked and performed great for years on that program. |

| I fed it for a few years and it was a ok grain but the price kept going up. My horses looked fat and felt good. Switched over to ADM and liked the results way better. Actually two of my horses lost good weight and weren't so bloated after feeding ADM. I think people feed it and think because there horses look fat but its not a good fat. There's better grain out there that's better priced.

I agree with you 100%. Keeping it simple is good but if your idea of keeping it simple is sweet feed...that's just not healthy! It's important to be educated about what is going into our bodies and our horses! |
