Re: [RC] [Guest] Susan??Senior feed??Purina or Buckeye Maturity??? - Susan GarlinghouseI have a 31 yr old retired distance mare who I recently switched from PS to Buckeye Maturity. She seems to have more energy and just 'brighter' looking. I also add beet pulp and oil and she still eats hay. Runs and bucks and plays so I must be doing something right. Any thoughts on the Buckeye feed?? Jan In COLD snowy MI wishing I was riding.. I don't have an ingredient list or analysis for the Buckeye Maturity to directly compare, but in general, I do like Buckeye products. They're a little harder to get in my area (available, but not always in stock or willing to get it for me). I like the forage balancer products especially, the Grow n Win or Show n Win, and fed that for awhile, but when a steady supply became an issue, I switched back over to Purina Horse Charge. The local distributor sells a lot of it so I know it hasn't been sitting in the back room for six months, plus is willing to work with me when I need a special order or delivery or something. I agree with the general concensus, that every horse is an individual and if one product isn't quite right for your horse, try the comparable product from another manufacturer. In general, I like the larger manufacturers over the local feed mill special, my experience has *usually* been that the formulation is better with the former.
