Feeding Notes: For horses with calcium deposits or bone spurs (including ringbone and sidebone), it is important to eliminate synthetic Vitamin D3 and outside sources of calcium from the diet. TLC Animal Nutrition, Inc. suggests replacing commercial grains and supplements containing these ingredients with their own feed ration (see “Feeding Suggestions”). Replacing alfalfa hay with grass hay will also help reduce calcium intake and improve control over the catalyst contributing to calcium deposits.
For horses with other injuries like navicular or fractures, there is more versatility to give other supplements along with EQUI-BONE. Switching to the suggested feeding program is ideal, but not typically 100% necessary.
Directions for Use: Using the scoop provided
During the first 5 months:
Note: One bag of EQUI-BONE pellets will last a 1,000–1,200 lb horse for two months at the loading rate. You may stay on the loading phase longer if necessary, but not shorter than 5 months.
For a proactive approach to supporting bone health:
Note: Give in addition to daily grain. One scoop is equal to a 4 oz dry measure.

"My horse is staying sound since we started feeding this product."
"Excellent product. Would recommend"
"I believe it works and I am thankful for it. But it cost to much."
"I started Equi-Bone on a navicular horse who also has big old splints. I noticed after three weeks that the splints were smaller. Added bonus! Looking forward to seeing what his x rays look like after a few months"
"This product is great but what I really want to give kudos to is schneiders. My last bag that had been out of stock for some time and when it arrived the box was destroyed by FedEx and there was a rip in the bag. Contact Schneider just to let them know they might want to change bags because this one is paper and it rips easily and they replaced the entire bag. No questions asked."
"I just started using the product but it came HIGHLY recommended by my Lameness Vet and she said she doesn't understand why this product has not gone viral. So far, my horses love the product, and I still need another month or so to evaluate the effectiveness."
"I love equibone I see a big improvement in my horse and his how he competes."
