Location: South Georgia		Just adding to this, Abler makes a product called Abgard which is a paste omeprazole (Ulcergard) and it costs $42.00 for a 6-dose stable pack tube. A 28 day treatment regime will cost $196. It works! It's the full strength dose also.

Location: North Dakota		 Hmm, so I am thinking my horses will NOT eat the alfalfa pellets if they are soaked. I’ve tried twice, and neither of them would hardly eat anything. Tried giving them just dry pellets tonight and they ate them all, no questions asked. 

I did did a few searches and sounds like some horses just don’t like them soaked?

Ive never fed pellets before and know they might be able to choke on them. They didn’t seem to snarf them down super fast, so I’m hoping they won’t be too risky on choke. 

I got the Standlee alfalfa pellets BTW.

I feed the pellets and cubes from Standlee and my horses never had a problem, to me as long as their teeth are good and they dont wolf their feed down they are good. My horses wont touch anything soaked. When I give cubes I dont feed alot of them at one time.
