Dealing with gut health

My mare has a hind gut ulcer that was causing her some problems. We switched to this feed and a few other nutritional tools and she seem to be doing much better

I have fed this for years and my horse looks and feels great!!!

I love Buckeye feed. Horse feed is all they make so I don't have to worry about my horses' feed being run through a hopper that has previously had medicated livestock

I love Buckeye feed. Horse feed is all they make so I don't have to worry about my horses' feed being run through a hopper that has previously had medicated livestock feed run through it and possibly poisoning my horse....he feels and looks great and is very happy and loves his Buckeye senior EQ8 gut health feed.
