easy to chew and palatable

So far, so good with this feed. After dental surgery I tried 4 feeds in a 2 week period of time. Each one was recommended by my vets. My horse would eat each one once or twice, and then be done with it. After the third one, I decided to research on my own for something that might work, as she seemed to struggle in pain trying to each the others. Based on the description and reviews of this feed, I decided to give it a try. So far, it has been a week and my horse is still eating this feed. I am encouraged and cautiously optimistic. Hoping she will continue and that it will help her put her weight back on that was caused by her tooth abscess issue. But in any event, she has always been a fussy picky eater, and she seems to really like the taste of this one.

Excellent feed for my senior pony

This product has been amazing, I have been using it for my senior pony who’s 30 years young, and has dental issues even with dental work due to her cribbing issues

This product has been amazing, I have been using it for my senior pony who’s 30 years young, and has dental issues even with dental work due to her cribbing issues from a home earlier in her life. But my pony absolutely loves this feed even with dental issues she’s able to easily chew and with her additional supplements to support her health, she has continued to gain and maintain her weight. She’s done excellent, very pleased with this feed and has done well with my modern Shetland senior mare. Recommend giving it a chance if trying to help keep your senior pony to gain.

This grain is a game changer- my ottb is definitely a hard keeper and struggles keeping weight, he’s been on this grain for a month now and I have noticed a big difference, he can actually keep weight now. He also usually has to have his grain like soup because he chokes if it’s not, but with this grain he doesn’t need it soupy and he gets it down without a problem. He also loves the taste of it. Thank you Buckeye!!!

Older horse

This grain is highly palatable when soaked about 3-5 minutes. My horse is over 30 and has lost several teeth. We feed this 3 times a day. He’s looking healthy

I've used this feed for all different kinds of horses from a horse in race training, to a horse that has to be monitored for choke (it's soluble ) to my hard keeper

I've used this feed for all different kinds of horses from a horse in race training, to a horse that has to be monitored for choke (it's soluble ) to my hard keeper. Hands down best feed on the market.
