lol - I've not met a horse that will eat this when first tried!! My old chap took a month of persevering to get him to eat it - I grated apples and carrots into his feed, he soon got the hang of it! My foal was the same - infact he is with each feed I have introduced him to. If I were you I'd keep trying for a while - wish you were closer though, as I'd have it ina heart beat - I'm in Cornwall!

You'll have to come visit our 3 pigs then - they scoffed it no bother!
Asti gets fed up of hi-fi lite pretty quick and won't eat it, so this year seeing as they are all doing well, we're on alfa a lite instead of oil, but might change back later if they start dropping weight...

Ellie woofed it back and if we can't get a horse at the yard to eat for some reason (IE We have hidden Bute in their feed
)then we give them some of El's Alfa A and it is gone in no time
Maybe it's just horses in our area like are piggies though eh Coppertop?

Asti used to be the yard dustbin/guinea pig when I was at one farm - another owner had a feed store (Feed 'Em for GG's benefit as she knows them) and they used to get new products to try on their own horse... who was really picky. As they used to "borrow" Asti to turn out really early with their mare, they were big pals with her so she got all the treats that theirs wouldn't eat!
Also she had a stable that most had to walk past one way or another with haynets and things, and Asti quickly cottoned on that if she put her head out to say hello and but an appealing look on her face, she got to nibble everyone elses nets and got lots of extra carrots etc... devious wench!
Luckily she's not a snappy type of horse, just a good beggar with big melty brown eyes that can elicit goodies from anyone!
