Re: [RC] Ultium Feed - Pam DeMerchant


Sheila, 

Not sure if your question is about the feed or the availability?  My 7 y.o. 
Arab-cross gelding has been on it for a month now.  It has really calmed him 
down and improved his coat.  He's usually a drama-king spooker but he's been 
acting downright level-headed and all grown up.  Not sure how much is summer 
heat-related and how much is feed.  His normal routine is about 20-40 miles a 
week and I reduced the Ultium quantity to 2/3 of his previous grain quantity.  
I'm sure results may vary with different horses and in comparison to what they 
were eating before.

Pam

==========================================

I am wondering about some of the posts that mention Ultium Feed.
From my reading of their literature it should only be fed to 
horses that are in  very intensive work, which may explain why a pony got a 
little hyper and other people have experienced
their horses having too much energy.  In addition, I have been unable to find 
it because our feed store that carries Purina 
products said they were not allowed to sell it without going
through a training class (of course that could be hooey)
because other people either can get it easier than I can or 
their feed stores aren't talking to the people buying it.

Anyway just curious.
