Ok I have placed my first order for simple system feeds as I like the idea of their feeding system! Spoken to them and they have recommended Lucie Nuts, Green Gold and Lunar Eclipse!

Does anyone use these feeds and what are your opinions?

I'm beginning to wonder if feed companies aren't over complicating feeding horses and making a lot of money out of it.

I do really believe you are what you eat and nutrition is important and overlooked at at your peril. But OMG theres some very expensive marketing going on and someoone's paying for that somewhere.

I say this after trying many different feeds and reading the literature on all of them all of which seemed very sensible and plausible given that I am neither a nutritional expert or scientist. They always seem to have plenty of evidence. But they can't all be the best so there must be a simpler common denominator.

We're on grass nuts and chaff now and the boy has never looked so well or my bank balance looked so good. Simple indeed!
 
I would praise Simple systems untill am red in the face they are FANTASIC!
I cant thank them enought for getting my horse back to a healty build. My Mr maxamillion has a tumor which left him looking like a resuce horse and he looked so skinny bless him. I tried feeds after feeds to get weight back onto him and nothing worked untill Simple systems was suggested to me and within 6 weeks he looked fab.
 
Hugely rate simple systems and the 'thought' behind their feeds etc.

If it wasn't for them I am convinced I wouldn't still have my girlie due to various issues. I will never feed cereals etc again.

Unfortunatly it became too expensive to import their feeds to us anymore but I now feed along the lines they addvocate.
 
I have used them for about 1 years, and won't use anything else now. All the horses(12 of them) look fantastic on it, keep a good weight on and are sane with plenty of useable energy. And I find it extremely simple to use and all horses eat it up with relish.
 
i highly rate Simple Systems, have been using it now for about 2 1/2yrs. Easy to use and has seriously cut my feed bills down (used to spend about £250 per month)
i use a mixture of the red and blue bag grass nuts along with the lucie nuts and then linseed. My horses love it
 
I have fed their products for several years to the clydesdales and gypsy cobs - I really rate the products. Cairo had more stamina and energy on green gold and just grass than he did on mix and mollassed chaffs.

I feed green gold and just grass or lucie stalks and ruff stuff depending on time of year and their condition/work load. I also top up with their grass nuts, red ones are great for giving my cob some real omph when I need it.

I do get my brewers yeast and linseed from Charnwood Milling as I use a lot of the stuff and it is far cheaper.

Only thing I also use that is not SS is black sunflower seeds, benevit from Feedmark and speedibeet.

I do find I don't need to give as much as they do say, and like that my two can sit and munch fibre and I don't have to wait too long to feed after or before exercise.
