Try adding just a tad to the horse's daily mash. Every few days, add a bit
more. Soon the horses will gobble it up without an eye blink. I give each of
my horses a morning soup of a cup of Strategy, 4 ounces rice bran, their
supplements, EquSee (vitaminE and selenium), garlic powder and add two
quarts of warm water. It is really WET. They slurp it up as though it were a
milk shake through a straw. Just give them time to aquire a taste for it.
They will if you are patient.
