First off, I hugely appreciate that MadBarn offers this service. Last summer I submitted evaluations on 2 horses I worked with and the feedback I got was incredible. “Try this, increase this, are you feeding this? Oh and you could add this MadBarn product” This year I submitted my new horses diet and the experience was much more like “sure the diet looks fine. You need to buy these 3 MadBarn products” It was way less about the feeding program and way more “buy our stuff” I already buy the products it just felt kinda yucky this time

I have never received the breakdown. Just the review and a letter about hot weather.

I am assuming this is regarding the test that I sent in 2021 and asked about feeding a weanling colt. I was informed that he simply would not do well on only that hay ( 10% protein) and oats and the Madbarn Zinc/copper supplement. It turned out that he ate over 20 lbs of hay daily last year and he did nothing but get taller and fatter. I do not want to sound like an expert on feeding, but we had basically zero options for hay last year, and I was very happy with how he did on that particular feed. If I hadn't been feeding horses of all ages for many years I would have felt pretty dismal after getting that recommendatiodvise from MadBarn. As it was I just carried on with what I had to work with and the colt did awesome. Thank you!

Je suis certaine de la qualité du produit, mais ma jument ne semble pas apprécier le goût à mon plus grand désarroi 😩

I have to say that the Optimum Digestive Health worked for a short time on my horse with Fecal water syndrome. But, after a while, I figured out that it was the coarser hay causing his issues, and if I fed him the low sugar coarse hay, he would have the fecal water, regardless of the amount of ODH that I gave him daily. If I fed him the softer, finer hay, the fecal water would be better. My conclusion is that what worked was feeding him different hay. I still use the ODH because I have a big tub of it, but I really dont feel it does that much for this issue.

Glad to hear your changing the packaging . The bag was hard to handle and sloppy I usually ended up spilling some out of every bag at some point

Only one horse out of three would eat it. I have them on AZ Copper Complete now, because all three eat it willingly. They offer sugar free apple flavoring which I am sure helps with palatability.

Formulation looks excellent but my horse will not eat it! Would also be nice if this had vitamin E in it for ease of supplementing.

The bag never came with a scoop to measure

The product has great ingredients but I purchased specifically for fecal water syndrome. Unfortunately there was no change.
