Happy to have found a low NSC ration balancer for my pony that doesn’t have molasses or other bad ingredients. Wanted one thru chewy so this was the winner! She is eating it well as I slowly transition her.
If you’re looking for a ration balancer that is safe for metabolic horses, look no further. It has a starch level of <1.5% people! My very picky 43 year tb ate this with no problem (I do lightly wet it) along with hygain Munga. Check that out too!
This is the perfect feed for my senior mare with Cushings. She's always been an easy keeper, so opting for the balancer pellet was the right move. She loves the taste and cleans her bucket every feeding!
My 23 year old Oldenburg N.A. mare was recently diagnosed with IR and Cushing’s disease. Per the advice of the veterinarian, I reduced her low carb/starch diet even more by switching to Hygain Zero Ration Balancer and she began to be off her feed and then would eat a little and then would be off again. I set up an appointment with the Hygain Nutritionist that suggested Hygain Meta Starch and Coolstance, and my girl is eating again! I appreciate Chewy’s willingness to carry so many feeds that would be normally unavailable to me.
Excellent product. Very Low Sugars and my horses love it and look great
I'm so glad that Chewy carries these feeds. I have a couple of horses that have metabolic issues. This feed is great for them.
Recently started my Navicular horse on this, it’s an excellent feed, very low in starches and he loves it!
