achildres - 2014-02-16 11:28 AM Update; my horses have been on it a week. I know that this may seem a little far fetched to see results in only a week, but I started my 13 yo gelding on it to get him some more energy because he just lollygags in the arena. Well, we ran yesterday and man did that ol grandpa have some fire in him! It was nice to finally feel him run! I am in love with this product no doubt 
Haha I say he is a grandpa just because of his attitude, he was incredibly lazy and gets all rude and upset when I asked him to do something (there was nothing medically wrong its just his attitude), he was acting like an ol fart. But i'm pretty sure he will always have the health of a 5 year old, and now he is acting like one! |

Location: San Diego, CA | I have been feeding it and really like it. My one horse has more energy on it than when he was on a mix of oats, beet pulp, and rice bran.
I've only been using it for 2 weeks but like the change already. We'll see if it continues. |

Location: Got Lobsta? | Ok need EVERYONE's advice! Jumped through 100 hoops and finally started on Renew Gold. I have 4 horses - all have been on Nutrena Senior. They are fed about 3 pounds a day on that. I slowly started to switch over to Renew Gold - ALL 4 horses have rejected it! ALL FOUR !! Someone suggested adding apple sauce. I don't want to have to do this at every feeding. Its been 3 days - everything left behind. Its pellets and dust. Is this normal? Any one have this problem and suggestions to help? I mean GO FIGURE! ARGH! |

I feed it and it is pellets, but no dust. I would take it back and get new bag. Maybe old? Or bad batch ? Call the company , they are great . |

I will try that. I will also call the company as maybe it is an old bag. I looked and it says to use it within 1 year of purchase. The date stamped on the bag says 7/13. It crumbles the moment I put it in the feed buckets. Thanks for the advice, maybe that is it I have old bags. |

What is left in the buckets is some pellets and bunch of dust. |

I misunderstood. I feed it with triple crown sr. Which has some molasses on it. Try adding a pound of your feed with it a day. Sheri feeds it with 1 lb of oats a day. Or call and ask to speek to Winn. He will be able to answer questions and go over your feeding program. |

Location: Phoenix | The creator was saying how it comes in pellet form, but they are designed to break down easily for easier digestion. If they aren't eating it, and there's moisture, I bet it would be powder in the morning. |

Location: Got Lobsta? | I meant that when its time for feeding, I put the food in the buckets and its pellets mixed with powder. It came out of the bag that way. |

Thank you that is what I tried. I first tried sprinkling it over their normal ration of Nutrena Senior - 1.5 pound and 1/3 pound of NG. The first feeding 1 horse ate everything the other 3 nothing, 2nd feeding all 4 horses didn't touch any grain. I emptied the buckets tried again and still they won't touch either feed now. I am going to try just the Safechoice tonight to see if they will at least go back to that. I am just frustrated as I see in all Renew Gold threads I didn't see anyone saying their horses didn't like it. |

Location: In the Hills of Texas | My horse wouldn't eat it alone as I took a small amount and threw it in his bucket and you would have thought I was trying to poison him. I feed soaked beet pulp so it gets mixed in.
I'm on my second bag and there was some dust on the bottom, probably not more then a cup if that.
Now I'm going to go and see if he will eat it by itself.
Hope you get it all figured out as I'm happy with this feed as I like the small amount they get as I have never believed in feeding 6 pounds of grain to a horse a day.

| I was told by the Renew Gold man that Sherrie Cervi feeds the oats because she wanted horse horse to be hotter! She was clocking good but Sherrie wanted her to be a little more revved up than what the feed made her! Basically she was too quiet for her liking! lol |

| For those of you wanting before and after pics/details.... I just wanted to say mine have been on it for 4 weeks and I can see and feel a complete change! My gelding is getting a topline (FINALLY) and he is developing all sorts of muscle definition that I have never seen before on him! And he is very focused. He has cool energy (FINALLY, again). He has always been a pretty calm horse and I've wanted to get a little bit more pep in his step. And well he pranced today!!! Lol he never does that I was so proud 
I also have a coming 6 year old mare on it and she is a complete swole house... She has always been a little ribby and you can see her back bone over her butt, and well thats all filled out now too! I recommend to anyone this feed, I love it!
I'm gonna try and upload pics but I can never get it to work. If you want to see some transformation pics, just PM me. I've been taking some every week to see the changes! |
