I bought a Gypsy Vanner 6 YO broodmare in April 2023 and she has struggled in switching over to our Michigan hay and grain (came from Kansas). She became extremely irritable as months went on and had consistent diarrhea, drinking loads of water and salt. Turns out she had minimal handling and skills which only made her more confused and ulcer prone when I started asking basic things from her. After reviewing her previous feeds at her prior home and Tribute feed she was getting here (Essential K) , I noticed the biggest difference was Soy products in Tribute. I pulled her off all Tribute products after speaking/messaging consultation with the wonderful Melissa at MadBarn and we switched her to Omneity Pre-mix and soaked Alfalfa pellets. She has had liquidish poop for SIX MONTHS and today 1...

w-3 Oil is great. Best and most economical source I've found for the DHA I was looking for. Not fishy smelling at all. Read a few reviews about the packaging frustrtions, but I found no issue with it. Bag in a box with a tap that has push button to dispense straight into the feed, or into a measuring dose cup that we prefer. Definitely plan on getting more when needed.

My mini mare has been on Chasteberry for a few weeks now. She is moving better and seems overall more comfortable. Two winters ago she developed winter laminitis. The effects have carried through the entire year with stiffness and her feet have been difficult to manage. Her diet is managed closely, she lives on a bare track with good quality hay, AminoTrace+, W-3 oil and now Chasteberry. I also have her on a two week trim cycle to manage her feet which are improving daily.

After trying two different antihistamines for my pony’s skin allergies I talked to one of Mad Barn’s nutrition experts and they recommend I start him on Spirulina and w-3 oil. The difference between these photos is 2 months. The antihistamines I got from the vet made my pony jumpy and irritable and didn’t stop him from itching the hair off of his face. I started noticing a difference after starting him on Spirulina within one month. His skin is completely back to normal, he itches less, and is his normal self again. 10/10 recommend!

My horses do great with this added to their forage. Both my yearling and my 12 yr old are shiny and healthy!

My horse had [redacted]. We treated with [redacted] for 2 months and the [redacted] went away, but the weird thing is he was still girthy and hated being groomed, would switch his tail and kick out. 1 month on visceral and [redacted], he will stand still for grooming and is no longer girthy. I’m beyond impressed by this supplement. Only down side is that it took him a while to be okay eating it and I had to introduce it extremely slowly. He will be on this supplement for life now! *** Parts of this review have been redacted to comply with Health Canada Regulations ***

I noticed an improvement in my horse's behavior and level of relaxation a week after starting him on Visceral+. He likes the taste as well, so I can actually reduce the amount of hay pellets that I use as a carrier for his supplements which helps me manage his easy keeper diet. Win / win!

Since their labeling change they also removed ingredients off the nutritional value table: It’s missing Crude protein Lysine Methionine Threonine Calcium Yeast bacteria With not knowing how much key essential ingredients I am providing my horse, I am forced to switch brands. Unfortunately this is a red flag 🚩 for consumers. It happens all the time. A key ingredient that may be costly is naked off the nutrition panel so they can reduce the amount greatly to save money as a company. To make matters worse, you’re not getting what they’re advertising. Returning the product, it wouldn’t have been nice to know they changed product quality.
