First of all, I WOULD feed the Omnis cubes if I could get them. Seeing as I can't, I feed whole oats, Alfalfa (I've tried every form, currently testing out chopped), flax, and Renew Gold (although suddenly I'm not seeing it at my Tractor Supply so if I can't get it in the future I'll just be doing rice bran from...uh...manna pro I think it is...that's what I got to tide me over for now. And of course grass hay!!! The amounts of each feed vary depending on the individual horse, workload, etc. But at the moment my gelding's daily ration (split in 2 feedings) is 2lbs oats, 4lbs alfalfa, 1/2lb RG (or rice bran), and for Flax he gets a Smartpak supplement in the mornings. He's never looked better.
There is absolutely no reason for Tractor Supply not to be able to have Renew Gold in stock. Nothing in production is back ordered anywhere, nor will it be in the future. If the store says that they can't get it, they are not telling you the truth, and they just did not order it. Nor do they need to place a large order to get it. Any Tractor Supply can get any amount that they want with a simple order. TSC product number is 1054391. | |

| I was on the fence about it at first but I'm really impressed with Purina Strategy Healthy Edge. My crew looks amazing on 4lbs a day. It's reasonably priced and easy to get in my area. | |

| This may be a dumb question but I am going to look into getting Renew Gold in my area. Can you add a small amount to your regular feed?  | |

Only problem is winwillows, you do a great job at production and distribution but all the Tractor Supply stores I have been into ( there are like 6 in my area) could CARE LESS about ANYTHING. They are the Walmart of feed stores. All they care about is volume not customer service. Atleast in my area. So it should be available but who knows what tractor supply is doing or if they even care to help you. THat has been my personal experience. Good thing for me in So CAL is RG is everywhere! :) | |

Since last month I can order the RG on a raincheck at my local TSC. So it is not randomly ordered but directly against my name. That should eliminate the problem of corporate butting in and deciding what is ordered or not. | |

| My guess is RG is not a high selling item volume wise. All the purina nutrena and TS brand stuff has priority. Not to mention crazy distribution. My TS is located right next to a nutrena mill. That mill ships it all across country to central distribution then back to California. So if i fed nutrena i am getting 90 day old feed that was literally Milled next door.

Location: Wherever They Send Me | I feed Renew Gold and Omnis to my 14 and 9 year old and Senior and Omnis to my 23 year old. When we move and Ill have to mix my own Omnis. :(
I like the amount of energy they have on the RG but without being hot, and the Omnis has really helped them fill out, shine and just plain look better. | |

Location: Willows, CA | Renew Gold is a growth product in Tractor Supply that has to go through a process to end up in all stores as a standard stocked item. We are in the middle of that process with them now. At first it was in one then two TSC distribution centers. Now it is in all of them, but still on a ordered by individual store basis. Some stores are great and some are not at this. We have TSC stores that order by the ton, and some that don't order at all. When the last step comes, which is standard placement in all TSC stores the problems pretty much go away. The choice to order is then taken out of the managers hands and the system automatically puts it in every TSC store and reorders whenever a bag is sold. Feel free to call if you have an issue. We can get the store on track most of the time whether it is an independent feed store or a TSC.

Yes, imagine how we feel. We could not work harder at getting RG to our customers. Unlike most feed companies, we are actually horse people too. TSC is a blessing in some areas where independent stores don't carry our products, and a curse in areas where people need it and a TSC that is right there will not bother to help. It has gotten better in the last few months with "in stock" percentages up over 80% in the stocking TSC stores that carry it. If and when it goes to the next phase with them it will be out of the individual stores hands, and stocking will be automatic. I still love independent feed stores, and we continue to support them in any way we can. We do have a great team that can help keep or get it in stock if a customer calls us. | |
