Has anybody got any good things or bad things to say about it? Also how much do you pay for a bag of it?

thankyou :)
 
Yep, used it last summer through winter with my four, all looked really well on that and grass in summer, and on grass (what there was!) hay and the odd hard feed in winter. Two are veterans, another just turned 13 and 4th is a shetland. Spent Previous two years at a **** yard pumping them full of haylage and hard feed all year round trying to keep condition on, moved them this time last year and they have lived out 24/7, 365 ever since. First time for them through this winter, obviously the worst we've had for many years and they came out the other side looking great. Just on hay (not great quality), a bit of fast disappearing grass and Lo Cal.

Very pleased with it, and obviously the good doer shetland did well, not putting on fat, but maintained lovely.

Oh yeah, and their feet were brill too. Best year they've had for their feet, even though our lower fields spent almost 6 months under water and the horses did lots of paddling.

:D Big thumbs up :D
 
I love it, my boy is in medium work and just gets lo-cal, chaff, oil and salt - he looks shiny and is doing really well on it. I feed slightly less than the recommended rate (always do with feed!) and one bag (£25) lasts 2 months.
 
I have a good doer cob, a blood pony and a cushings welshie and they all do brilliantly on it with happy hoof. Just gave the blood pony speedibeet through the winter as well. All have maintained balanced weight, good coat and feet.
 
I feed mine topspec lite. I did compaire the 2 a while ago and topspec lite worked out cheaper in the long run and had a lot more in it than the baileys. A lot off the vitamins baileys wouldn't declair the amounts within the bag or just low level where as topspec stated the full amounts and were a lot higher levels than baileys. I picked up a chart compairing both balancers and I will stick with topspec
 
I would definitely recommend it! I feed it to all of my four very different horses. We pay about £25 per bag. I've never had any problem with it making a horse lively.

I'd be interested if you could be faffed. Been feeding Baileys for 6 months and it seems very good but expensive..
 
Brilliant.
Our welshies had balancer on their own (no chaff etc) and they looked great on it.
Our big girl is on it with just a tiny amount of chaff and garlic and her coat etc is looking superb.

Around £23 down where we are :)
 
Iv left work and just read that some off you would like the info. I shall post it tomoz in my dinner break. I'm only on a I phone so will write it out as I haven't got a computer. Will be posted by 1 pm tomoz
 
We use it for ours, it's fab! It also works out very cheap in the long run as you feed only a small amount - well that's what my back specialist said and she is GOOD :)
