Hi All,

Would be interested to hear your views on this if you've used it, or if you rate something else above it?

Have checked out their website and case histories do look good.

Thanks!

Yes and I swear by it, I find it just does ... everything. Ours were on various things for respiratatory issues, digestive issues, weight loss, weight gain :)
Put them on Blue Chip Original, and gradually everything else has gone and they all keep well.
Beginning to think I was just a bit overzealous, I phased it out once and, never again! They all went backwards instantly.

So a big thumbs up from me.
 
tried it about 7 years ago and it did absolutely diddly squat.

then tried Topspec and have used it on every horse since and it is really fabulous stuff, everything looks great on it.
 
Well a well respected independant nutrionist did say to me that Blue Chip was £39 on advertising and £1 on ingredients. I've never had that much success with it, had much better results with Topspec. Blue chip sent most of mine loopy!
 
Topspec all the way for me, I have the whole yard on topspec now.
Iv saved so much on feed by useing their balancers and even the tbs who use to be feed ( topline cubes, alfa a oil, speedibeet,) twice a day and still look ok ish, are now feed topspec comphensive in a handfull off topspec chop and are fat.
Iv got a chart which compairs blue chip to topspec and topspec is by far the best spec. Blue chip won't state quite a lot off vit/min levels and there's a lot missing which topspec have. It's very interesting to look at and from looking you see that blue chip hasn't got a lot in or very low levels. If you would like a copy I would be more than happy to photo copy it and send a copy to you. Pm me if you would like a copy.
 
top spec all the way, again i have heard that blue chip doesnt contain half the goodness of topsprc. Bluechip sent mine a bit daft, but i have my 4 year old on topspec and hes been alot happier horse on it. It helps in all areas, even temprement id say because if a horse is lacking in certain vitamins its amazing how they can change, but this has everything! good luck! x
 
I used it & pro for years & was pleased with the results. Then I looked at the ingredients & decided to switch to Topspec as it wasn't grain based. Horses have continued to do very well with less silliness & it costs less per bag as well. Sticking with Topspec.
 
i had heard that top spec can send some horses a bit daft too?? is that the case???? How can the baileys Lo cal put weight/condition on???
 
I don't see how topspec can make any horse loopy, it's cereal and grain free, low sugar and starch and high fibre.
Maybe it was what they were feeding with it? Or the fact the horse went onto a balanced diet and getting all he should? And felt well
 
I started my 3 year old (KWPN) on Blue Chip Original 4 weeks ago, but I also did a worm count on her as, even though she is on a worming program, I just couldnt keep the weight on.

Turns out she had worms, so now, after being wormed and she is still on Blue chip, she has ganined weight and is looking great.

I can't say if the blue chip worked, or if its a combination of both.

She is quite lively in the field at the moment though!!!!

blue chip is used a lot in the racing industry and it does work to keep weight on.
Redmills do a cheaper one called growcare and we have had very good results with that too.

The way I looked at it when I went to start my lot on balancers was to get a full print out off every level off vit/mins etc within the balancers which was very interesting. Blue chip is a lot off money for not a lot off goodness to be honest. I haven't compaired growcare yet but some off the racers were on it but have been swapped to topspec racing balancer. Might compair now out off interest but yet to find a higher spec balancers than topspec.
