Big Sky Horse Mineral supplies the animal with over 70 minerals in chelate form to detoxify, and will aid in parasite control. These three issues all have to be addressed if we want healthy horses. You get all this in one package. Whatever your horse needs, Big Sky gives you the foundation to build upon.

Big Sky Horse Mineral is a balanced amount of macro and micro minerals to complement each other and help the horse balance his system. Since Big Sky is a product in its natural form, a horse will free choice it to supply his mineral needs as it is intended. Big Sky gives the horse a bigger variety of minerals than we have found in any other product. Balanced by nature and in harmony with nature.

It is important what you feed a horse. It is also important how many of these nutrients the horse retains for himself. Most important, are these nutrients surrounded by the correct micro-nutrients so they can enter the blood stream in the correct balance so the horse can get the most benefit?

With the horse being somewhat of a desert animal, he prefers the mineral rich dry grasses growing around the mineral deposits in the western states. If the horse has a health issue he would even eat the mineral rich soil to correct his problem. This is what we are bringing to you for your horse. In all our years of horse nutrition I have still not found a better balanced, more complete mineral supplement system than what nature has given us.

The demand for micro-nutrients in any given horse is constantly changing. Force feeding micro-nutrients often overloads the liver and kidneys, which need to be at full capacity during high physical output. The serious horse owner should not guess at the requirements of the horse but should free choice.

    Someone Found Them Yummy!

    Posted by Susan (Pie & Sioux's Mom) on 22nd Sep 2016

    I've been with my 12 yo OTTB gelding for over 8 years. I know him like I know myself, I rode him when he was a racehorse, and then adopted him when his career ended abruptly. I anticipated him liking this very much as well as needing it. We moved to a new farm where it is entirely self care. . .including the pastures which were mineral depleted. Also, he sweats a lot in the summer. He ate these minerals like they are candy. I'm on a tight budget so I hate giving it to him free choice, but for now, I can't argue with him. My WB/Paint mare was annoyed that there wasn't something more special in the buckets. I top dress her food with a little and leave it at that. She eats it on her food, but not free choice. That said, she seems to get a lot of nourishment from very little. I have some adorable photos of my OTTB eating his Blue Sky Minerals for the first time on my blog: http://wp.me/p4IjRl-Uo (scroll down after the video). I'll see if I can update my review after they've been on them a while. They used to have ok feet, but they were getting bad, I'm hoping having more dry time and these minerals will help. :)

    Using it on 3 horses, ages 5 to 30. It has improved the condition of the 30 year old tremendously. The younger horses maintain weight easily and have amazing coats.

    My horses' hooves and coats improved greatly after using these minerals. They love the taste and I feed it free choice.

    Horses love it!

    Never thought they would eat grey powdered minerals by them selves but they gobble it up. They have good feet but I've still seen improvements . Been using Big Sky minerals for just over 1.5 years. Hate needing to order and pay shipping but they are doing too good on it not to.

    Horses eat it up with no issues lick the bowl. Haven't noticed any big differences in horses but they apparently like it as it's always gone when I check feed bowl.

    These minerals did wonders for all my horses. Had a 30 year old retired race horse that was not looking well in the spring. After a few weeks on this product, her coat is shiny, her weight started picking up and she's eating better. For the price, it's an excellent value with visible results.

    Best Mineral on the Market!

    Posted by meagan on 9th Jun 2016

    I searched high and low for a great mineral that did not contain molasses and had a large spectrum of different minerals. I am on my second bag of Big Sky Minerals and am so pleased. The horses love it and do eat more or less depending on the weather. I offer it free choice both in the stall and pasture. My horses' hooves have grown stronger and overall they are very healthy. I am very very pleased and will only use this mineral for my horses. Love it!

    My horses love Big Sky Minerals. I have never seen them look as healthy and have such energy since they have been on this mineral. Plus their parasite load is greatly reduced. Less worming per year Excellent Product.
