Hiland's Big Sky Mineral - 25 lb Bag

I was told about Big Sky by a Holistic Horse Practitioner in my area. I contacted her in late 2015 due to my horse having Lyme disease 3 times in less thank 2 years. I know the meds are hard on them and I was concerned that my horse 14 at the time may not fully recover with each bout of Lyme. She told me about Big Sky Minerals and how to feed it along with organic ACV. I was skeptical at best but willing to try pretty much anything to help my horse. That was December,2015, 3 months after his last round of antibiotics and a blood test showing still elevated numbers for the Lyme. I started him on Big Sky in January, 2016 and had his Lyme 'numbers' done again in March, 2016. I am still amazed they dropped significantly over 700-1k points! He has been Lyme free since and at almost 20 years old is rocking a fabulous shiny coat that everyone comments on. I have just started him on Big Sky Amino Plus, Hitrax and Minzyme for the winter to help arthritis and hopefully replace the cosequin. Better for my horse and my wallet. Stay tuned I will let you know how it goes. LOVE YOU ANDY MILLER and LAURA- You gave me my horse back. God bless!!

They each eat it at their own rate, and that can change from week to week. I do have one who just eats it all immediately, so I have to ration his. I noticed they eat more when our hay quality is not as good, and less when the hay is really good. I think feeding a proper mineral mix free choice is really helping fill in any gaps in their nutrition. Between pasture grazing, hay, a good vitamin, natural salt, and Big Sky Minerals, I feel good about my horses' diet!

My horses love their big sky minerals. (Apparently so do the cats. I find the bag open and they're the only ones with access). I feel good knowing they're getting everything they need in addition to their hay and pasture.

Just started using BS a couple months ago. I’ve been waiting to write the review until I used it a while. My white horse has dapples and I don’t think I’ve ever seen dapples on her before. She now has a winter coat and is loaded with dapples. She seemed healthy and entergentic. Even my other horse that has suspensoary problems is acting better and less lame. I’m very impressed thus far! I never realized how much the horses were missing minerals until now. I will never take my horses off of them. I feed free choice about a week or so Then too dress.

Actually what my new draft horses needed.

Just started my 9 yo mare on this about 2 weeks ago. I can't tell you about the long term advantages of this yet but I can tell you she like it. I put one scoop in a salt block feeder every day (only if it's empty) and so far that's been everyday. I like that's it's considered free range and she only takes it if she wants it so I'm not force feeding it to her. I bought it mainly for hoof and overall health. I will update this review in a few months to see if any improvements. If there is an improvement in hoofs I will give 5 stars.

I love the Big Slky minerals for my horses, they look great

My picky horses love this blended mineral supplement magic mix. They actually lick their lips when they see me coming with it. I haven't been able to free choice it yet because they like it so much and will just eat it. They look great! Shiny coats and the horse that was eating dirt stopped after starting her on Big Sky minerals. I get this shipped to CA and feel the results are worth the expense. Thanks Big Sky!!

BIG SKY consistently continues to be the very best supplement for my horses. I have been using BIG SKY for approximately five years and will continue to do so. My gelding has the best coat he has ever had and my other horses coats are just as good.
