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.

    My Horses LOVE IT!!

    Posted by Jayme on 28th Aug 2014

    I am amazed at how much my horses love the Big Sky minerals. I buy the bulk bags and transfer some into a smaller container which is easier for me to manage. The horses see me carrying the container and they all start calling for it. It's like I'm serving ice cream to kids! What I like is the good reviews from the natural trimmer who does my horses feet. He has commented on how great everyone's feet are looking as well as the beautiful sheen to their coats. This is a very good product, and I recommend it without reservation.

    Amazing!

    Posted by Linda on 23rd Jul 2014

    Shipping is prompt, thank you! I just wish I had discovered Hiland's Big Sky Minerals years ago. We have been feeding Big Sky for four months now and I'm amazed. As described by other users the coats are beautiful, the feet are growing wonderfully and strong, and muscle tone is improved. The weepy eyed pony no longer has weepy eyes. The cresty pony has hardly any crest at all. The horse that gets open allergic sores on his shoulders every summer has no open sores this year. The arthritic horse is becomming more flexible. I love that it can be fed free choice and every time I see them standing in the field I'm happy to see them looking so good!

    BEST THING I EVER DID FOR MY HORSES

    Posted by Karen on 3rd Jul 2014

    I've been using Big Sky for a couple years now and i can't say enough about this product. It brought my old horses to a new life and helped my young ones stay young. Their coats transformed within 30 days of using the product. My appaloosa's spots are bigger and brighter than ever. Do your horse a favor and get them this product.

    Free Choice Minerals

    Posted by Dianne on 16th Jun 2014

    I believe in offering free choice minerals to my horses. I happen to have Shires. They don't eat the huge meals that some horses do so in order to be sure their mineral intake is sufficient, they get Big Sky Minerals from a large bucket. I hang it in the run in shed. I also feed a separate salt block as this is not meant to be a salt supplement. Great product and horses love it.

    Great Product!

    Posted by Unknown on 2nd Jun 2014

    Since feeding this supplement the horses have taken on a better hair quality (after-shampoo like shine)and hoof quality. I trim the feet for barefoot riding and the hooves develop a better hoof quality in conjunction with this product (we live in the Sonoran desert of Arizona). The horses appear healthier overall. This is a top product in our feeding program and would not want to do without. Thank you for this great product. Michael S.

    Amazing improvements since starting the minerals!

    Posted by Unknown on 23rd May 2014

    This is the second bag of minerals for my 4 horses. So far I've been so happy with the results, the fast handling/shipping and the fact I can get a quality product shipped to my door! I had one mare with extremely hard heats and a weepy eye. Since starting the minerals a few months ago her eye stopped weeping and her heats are amazingly mild. One of my geldings has terrible feet and we've had a barefoot trimmer working on him for a year to readjust the damage done by other farriers. His feet are growing nicely and the new growth is hard and healthy. He is no longer walking like he's walking on glass. The other gelding and mare just look awesome. No bloated bellies, shiny coats and a great weight even though they are on unlimited hay/pasture with no grain. All four started blowing their coats when we started the minerals and it was still close to zero degrees here in very Northern New York. I can't say enough good about these minerals. Thank you so much for an awesome product!!!!

    Awesome product

    Posted by Julie Whitlock McKee on 29th Apr 2014

    I began using this product on my hunt horses, who always are very tucked up and fit at the end of the season, which takes about two months to get them back. Using these minerals has helped them keep weight on by being able to process the feed better. I have now switched over to a whole food and these minerals are a major part of the feeding program. I have one horse that comes off the acupuncture points for ulsers, and after putting her on the minerals she is no longer coming off the points. I have a non sweater, hard keeper and he is maintaining his weight so much better. I have a weanling that is a good hand bigger than another weanling her age and she too has been on the minerals since she was born. All in all this product has made all my horses happier and healthier. I couldn't be more pleased.

    friendly service, fast shipping

    My horses love it, and they've never been so healthy looking. Their coats shine even in winter, and their hooves are strong and healthy enough to go barefoot. They eat it like it's candy, and never leave a drop and I have some picky eaters.
