Hi, I was just reading your reply on the 'What feed' post so looked up coolstance. We have a horse with EPSM and one with Cushings so it seems it would be ideal for them.
Just wondered where you order it from and approx price?

Thanks muchly. Jo

try simple systems feeds, with EPSM horses they need a high oil diet, low starch and sugars. Grass a no no too

Hi Sue, thanks for your reply. Will definately look into it. The EPSM horse is on Top Spec feed with soya oil added but it is fairly costly, not that i mind, but if I can cut costs its all good.
Thanks again. Jo x

Jo, Top spec is even to much for an EPSM horse. Even a polo can set them off.

Hi Shaz. Caprice has been stable on her diet for nearly 6 years. I would post a pic on here but i'm rubbish at it. I'm always interested in other feeds though but as you can appreciate i'm wary because i don't want her going back again.
Strangely it was the mention of Cushings that made me perk up about Coolstance(Honey has it)and if I can find a more cost effective way to feed them all the better.
Would be grateful though if you could let me know which Simple Systems feeds Liz feeds hers. E-mail if you prefer. happy.gifhappy.gif
