Mad Barn is a great quality product! From Supplements to Visceral +, Mad Barn has been a big help with my Mare’s pssm type 2 diagnosis.

Scott has been great for advice, from feeding protein to getting a lower % of NSC in my hay.

I had to soak my hay to lower the NSC for my mare. Scott had recommended trying to cut my hay as soon as the dew came off of it; to help lower its NSC.

I did as he suggested and just received my analysis. NSC is 10.89% this year :D

Thank you Scott!!!!!! Now, I do not have to soak hay all year.

I highly recommend Mad Barn. Not only for its quality product, but for the people behind the product. They really truly care about their clients and their horses.

The horses come first and for me that makes all of the difference.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU to Mad Barn for developing such a fantastic product
in Visceral +!! My horse was always a finicky eater and with big shows in our schedule it was inportant to me to have his appetite at its peak! I have been feeding him Visceral+ for 2 months now and he has drastically improved in his eating habits and overall appearance. He was a horse that could take or leave his grain depending on his “mood” but now he looks for his grain with a keen sense of desire!! He has been showing away from home for 3-4 days at a time and maintaining his weight and fitness all thanks to a happier tummy that is absorbing all the nutrients put in front if him! I have recommended this product to everyone I know and will continue to use this for my horse!! Thank you Mad Barn!!

Mad Barn products are excellent – backed by science and a true love for horses, Scott Cieslar creates top quality supplements. My 23-year-old Quarter Horse is on one of Scott Cieslar’s formulas and people have a hard time believing how old he is – he sure doesn’t look it or act it!
Thank you for helping me to give my horse the quality care he deserves.

I ordered the Optimum Digestive Health – Pellets yesterday morning around 9am, and I am just so amazed at how quickly the supplements come. Already received from Canpar just now!! I have a terrible memory for supplements, so when they arrive so quickly, my horses never fall off their schedule, it’s truly awesome. Really amazing how quickly you can order and receive the package from Mad Barn.

I do buy the 2.5kg bag, the only down fall is the packaging, I find it really hard to get a full scoop out of the bag because of the way the sides are enclosed. Other than that, I absolutely love supporting this company.

Hi, i would like to share here my horse story.

he was given to me in February 2016 because of his persisting lameness. after a few month of turn out (he had been in stall rest for the last 2 year) and a weight loss) his lameness was a better but not cured. so we got xray done to know the reason of the lameness since the previous owner was not able to explain it to us when the horse was given.

see my shared post for the radio.

the horse was then diagnosed with a ostéitis of the 3rd phalanges. the vet was not optimistic aboit it but when he saw my sorrow he said that maybe a mineral reinforcement would help the tissues regenerate. So i had heard a lot of good about MadBarn and their supplements are and were the most complete i could find without driving for hours to go get them.

in August we started him on the omeneity.

recently he stayed sound even with some riding walk trot canter so i decided i would insure that he was also doing good inside that foot.
if you look at the 2nd xray you can see the bones density is clearly higher. the only change in this horse life was turnout and the omeneity supplement.

so I THANK YOU MADBARN AND SCOTT for this my horse is now not only confortable but sound again. nutrition is key of many problem.
i also thank my vet and farrier for helping me find ways to help my horse.

I used Visceral + for a gelding with a bad case of [redacted] and it has completely [redacted]! I also use the very cost effective Optimum probiotic everyday for my two FEI horses.

Sam is a horse that’s very hard on himself when traveling to go race. When discussing his need for something to help him stay calm on race day as well as something to help his body recuperate from the stress, AJ immediately suggested Visceral. I noticed a difference in his appetite within 2 weeks & now, after 6 weeks, the difference in his appearance is more than apparent; carrying more weight than ever, his coat shines and he is covered in dapples in mid January! His last race was his least stressed outing yet, his best performance in months & not a morsel of food was left uneaten following race day.

My daughter recently decided that she wants to bring back our 23 yr old Broodmare into work .. So we decided that we would try your visceral + with her as she had a few behaviour issues and was showing signs of stressing with stall walking and hard keeper to my standards..


I’m glad to report that after only 10 days on the trial size container, the old lady is doing amazing and we have seen huge changes in her attitude and work ethic..


WE LOVE MAD BARN !!!


This is second horse we have used visceral with and it works wonders…

I finally found a more reasonable vitamin supplement that carried what Summer needed. They offer organic selenium and many other minerals. I have to share my experience:

I called and Spoke with Scott the owner, who has a Masters of science in Nutrition and 10 plus years experience. He was very forth coming that they add in synthetic vitamin e to their supplements to help with cost but offer extra organic vitamin e as customers in Ontario ask for it. He had great advice on mowing hay in the morning vs night for a pssm horse etc. We discussed extra organic vitamin e and he said he would make me up some with a little flavour etc. I ordered the regular supplements while I waited on a quote for the organic e.


Well Today I got the vitamins in the mail, with my organic vitamin e. He sent it to me, to get summers levels where they needed to be and then explained after it was gone, the new supplements he made for summer will keep her where she needs to be. So impressed. There was no hidden labels, no “false advertising” iHe just wanted to see her get better. That is what every needs for a supplement supplier. Thank you so much!!!

 


 

My little pssm horse is doing so much better since her switch to madbarn vitamins, her selenium and vitamin e levels are back to normal and I am starting to see muscle regrowth. Thank you so much, putting in my second order today!

Meet Bam Bam. She’s enjoying Visceral+ as well as MB’s oil. I am more than pleased with not only Bam’s physical appearance but her overall change in demeanour around the barn! Notice rib coverage, and how she’s filling out over her rump and around her shoulder and whither area. Each month she is progressively filling out and gaining muscle however notice how she’s really starting to shine?

 

Here’s Polly after being on Optimum Probiotic for one month! Feeling good inside, looking good outside

Since I started using the Mad Barn products on Wild and Crazy Guy. I have noticed a remarkable difference in his eating habits and overall well being. He has stepped up his racing game and looks amazing. I now have my entire barn on Mad Barn products.

As a trainer, I am a firm believer in daily electrolyte supplementation for all our horses during the training and racing stages and I look for quality of product, palatability (in water) and cost. Mad Barn’s Performance XL: Electrolytes fits the bill for me and all our stable. One of our top 3 year olds, Rockin In Heaven, always lost lots of electrolytes while trucking and racing in the NYSS program, and Mad Barn’s Performance XL: Electrolyte helped keep him on the right track to earn over $367,000 last year. Top product for an important aspect of daily conditioning
