    Advantages Advantages Contains all the necessary nutrients and horses like it.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Very expensive.

    I have 2 horses and they are costly and time consuming though worth it. Feeding in winter increases making the costs increase, as horses need more hard feed (concentrated feed), as well as hay or haylage as the grass is less in winter and not as good therefore providing less nutrients. When feeding horses, it is essential to select the correct food for them. They need to maintain their weight, not be too fat or thin. They need to have the type of food suited to their temperament as some can make the horse too fizzy and even make them dangerous to ride if fed incorrectly. Other feeds may not be ... more

    Advantages Advantages conditions horses to the full

    Disadvantages Disadvantages possibly bit pricey

    I am on about my 3rd bag of blue chip now and must say how impressed I have been with the results. I started using blue chip as my oldest mare who is now 21 years (young) didn;t have that nice sleek coat that she used to have, it started growing in slightly longer and didn't look as shiny even though she was on good food with added supplements, so I decided after reading the reports to change her to blue chip. So far the results have been excellent, her coat is now looking sleek again with a lovely shine. Blue chip helps the gut to work properly and digest food to its full. At the moment I am ... more

    Advantages Advantages Results

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not cheap

    This is a really good product. Blue chip is a feed balancer (unsurprisingly, given the name!), that you feed alongside your horse or pony's usual feed ration. It is full of all the viatmins and minerals that they need for optimum health. It also offers a yeast culture that supports the action of the hind gut and so should help digestion. It comes in a small pellet form and is really palatable to the horse. I have never known any horse to refuse it. It is pretty concentrated and so a bag will last quite a long time. I have large natives and each one gets a mug full once daily. Blue Chip produce ... more

    Advantages Advantages Healthy coat, bright eyes, over all condition

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Price £34 a bag!!! Aaarrgghh!

    I have been feeding Blue Chip to my horse now for about the past 3 years. I own a Welsh Section D. He was 5 years old when i got him and he looked a little behind and under weight for his age, so after getting some helpful advise from Sandy, my riding instructor, I put him on Blue Chip and within 2 weeks i started noticing a difference. His coat was really shiney, his eyes were really bright, his weight gain was good and his over all condition was just 100% better. All i do is add a very small amount to his feed every morning and thats it. It comes with its own little scoop so you know how ... more

    Advantages Advantages does the job

    Disadvantages Disadvantages a little pricey

    I have owned a variety of horses and ponies in my horsey years so far and 2 of these have been in a ‘less than perfect’ condition when I took them on and each time I have used blue chip original to give that all needed boost of health. The first was a 15hh welsh section D that was 4 years old at the time, she was newly backed, incredibly excitable but hugely underweight, I used blue chip as a supplement to her daily feeds and within 6 weeks (1 sack) the improvement was unbelievable, I had a good size mare with a glossly coat, bright eyes and yet still a trainable temperament. The ... more
