My Favorite Feed ADM is where I get my feed. The products I get are Patriot 14 , StayStrong Mineral Pellets and MooreGlo Fat Supplement. Patriot 14 has an NSC of 20%. This is lower than Safe & Sound by Nutrena. The StayStrong
Mineral Pellets have absolutely no carbs, no molassis. This is fed at 1lb per day for your easy keeper fat boys (and
girls). This keeps their mineral and vitamin levels optimal while they are only on forage. The Moore Glo is also
fed at 1lb per day with a fat from rice bran at 18%. Perfect for all horses especially your drafts. Fat from rice
bran keeps longer AND fat vs carbs is a "cool" energy source, unlike carbs and sugar that make horses hot.
For your equine senior I recommend Patriot Senior. These feeds can be found at: St Hedwig Feed & Supply 540 E. FM 1518 S St Hedwig, TX 78152 (210)667-1346

My Favorite Mentor
* Eddie Drabek of Whole Horse Trim
is a certified AANHCP Hoof Care Practitioner. I have known Eddie for a couple of years now and I follow
his trim style and people skills closely. Eddie has 400+ horses in his care. Many of which are Performance Horses.
I bring this to light because their are many skeptics that feel that the barefoot movement is strictly for lame and ailing
horses. This myth couldn't be farther from the truth. There are many working and performance horses that excel
in their discipline and are healthier for it to boot! Just ask Eddie and his wife Tiffany. Click their link or
the Hoof below to visit with them.

My Favorite Topical Wound Treatment
* Eclispe Wound Wash and Wound Creme this stuff is in my opinion phenominal. I can not tell you what a great product this is and
it is very economical. Click on the link above and look at the case studies on this product. I can testify whole
heartedly that this product is everything it says. The customer service is outstanding. This product can also
be found at Valley Vet Supply, however they do not sell the gallon size which can only be purchased through PRP Technology. Check out my Catastrophic
Wound Care page (coming soon).
