My two Thoroughbred Makeover Project horses (the bay dragons) have been on the Visceral supplement for two months now and both have had marked visible and temperamental improvements. The gelding's body condition has been improving and his cribbing has decreased. The mare, who was starting to show indications of [redacted] issues - grouchy girth moments and sensitivity when brushing chest and barrel - is giving me less and less cranky-mare face moments when grooming, tacking up and riding. I have been administering the Visceral as a top dressing with their soaked beet pulp meals and the pellets are the first thing they go for. I am transitioning both of them over to the Optimum Probiotic product from the Visceral . They also receive the Omneity Premix for their minerals/vitamins along with ...

I'm a skeptic. Especially when it comes to supplements for the horses. In my 40 years of owning, riding/driving and showing I've seen a lot of fads come and go, including many that didn't work. In late summer (August) we noticed that the boys had inflamed guttural pouches, were coughing and had thick, white mucus in their nostrils after work. Our vet prescribed a course of anti-histamines and things improved, but as soon as we'd back off the antihistamine, the symptoms would reappear. There had to be a better way to treat than continuing to treat with antihistamines for weeks on end - but what? We follow Dr. Kellon's work so I was surprised when I saw the studies about supplementing with Spirulina - OK, so we've got some science to back this up. We've been off the antihistamines for 6 we...

I have been feeding Amino Trace for some time now. My nineteen year old Canadian mare looks fantastic. Her feet are in excellent shape. I feed it twice a day mixed with a small amount of soaked alfalfa cube, and a probiotic. Palatability has never been a problem. I started off with a very small amount mixed with a bit of the ration balancer she was accustomed to, and gradually increased the Amino Trace until I was feeding the recommended amount and dropped the ration balancer . My small donkey was another story. He is a much more selective eater, so I resorted to moistening it with a very small quantity of FlaxAppeal and a little bit of chopped carrot....and bingo, that did the trick! Now they both look forward to their "nummies" with great anticipation. It is great so have access to su...

My Canadian mare is an easy keeper but started diarrhea and has always had lots of gas. I had the Vet check her and do blood work with concerns always for elevated sugar levels. Blood work was normal. The Vet suggested a probiotic and that Mad Barn was a good product. Mad Barn has no added sugar in any of its products. Bonus. To date my mare has been a little reluctant to eat the Viseral but he staff at Mad Barn were prompt in responding to my concerns of getting the product ingested. I know that my mare has been spoiled with carrots & cracked oats so a little mixture of unsweetened applesauce has helped me win her over. I want this product for the preventive properties that is supported by all the other positive reviews. So on our way from 1 - 5 ? My ratings was for their immediate ...
