Looking at costs and such I would recommend feeding Buckeye Ultimate
Finish if you are in an area where you can get their feeds. It's a kibble type
feed, 25% fats from several sources. It is stabilized so won't go rancid and
sunflower seeds can become rancid. Check out their web site: http://www.buckeyenutrition.com/horse/index.html .
I've been thinking about getting some to feed my new skinny Mouse. I've been
adding beetpulp to his feed but he eats much slower than the others and I have a
time schedule to keep in the mornings so I can hit the road to work. The
ultimate finish is much more calorie dense than the beetpulp so the pure volume
in his tub will be reduced. By the way, all my animals LOVE it, cats, dog,
horses.

Been hearing lately about feeding black oil
sunflower seeds, still in the hull. It's being touted as an alternative
to feeding oil, and it would certainly be an easier alternative for horses
kept in a boarding facility.
Can anyone tell me the pro's and con's
about this?
