yep its really simple to buy, LOL. I get a few tubs every time I go to Wal-Mart or when I'm in Tractor Supply, I keep about 4 tubs in my feed room all the time, I use to buy the 20 lbs sacks but cant find them anymore and if you order over the internet you got shipping fees and I dont like shipping fees, lol. So I just buy the 5 lbs tubs. |

Location: Kansas / South Dakota | If you are going to a no grain diet and just feeding alfalfa cubes, how many pounds per day do you feed? How would you adjust that if they are out on grass 12 hours/day? |

Location: Northwest | Check out Dynamite Equine. It’s very affordable and an amazing product. I needed an all-around mineral. I’ve tried quite a few over the years and this will definitely remain my go-to, even over Platinum. |

| I just recently, like yesterday, bought Triple crown ration balancer to add to my hayrite alfalfa cubes.. feeding only 1lb per day supposed to provide all the vitamins and minerals needed. I do also feed platinum.. I'm still undecided if I'm keeping platinum in my program.. |
