Re: Pushing the lethargic horse?

I ordered some 1000IU capsules with oil now. It said natural and d-aplha tocopherol, so it should be OK then. Thank you! No, he's actually a very picky eater (thankfully!), and doesn't think much of

Re: Magnesium supplements Suggestions. James decided he HATES Metabolease

Hi Angela, Recently Dr. Kellon posted that Cocosoya oil from Uckele is safe at up to 4oz/day. You could try a drizzle of that over the supps. Most horses love it so maybe it would work for James.
