Tribute Feeds

[TheRedHayflinger]

anyone heard of them? Been looking for something to replace what I was feeding and found a very similar product that looks better.

So...was just wondering if anyone has heard anything, good or bad, about the company.

Best feed on the market IMO. We feed nothing but and have had so many clients switch to it after having a horse in training with us and seeing how well they look after a short period of time.

Tribute feeds is wholly staffed by former Buckeye employees... when M&M Mars bought Buckeye, and changed feed formulas, and left out some ingredients, employees who were dedicated to the old Buckeye party line of quality and value LEFT Buckeye, built a brand new facility just up the road, and started making the old formulas.

They use the absolute best ingredients on the market and have tons of research to back it up. We feed Kalm Ultra which is an extruded pellet and a fix formula (NOT least cost).

good to know. I used to feed buckeye, but then found out some stuff about the company and switched out of using it. I'll probably be picking up some Tuesday when I get paid as the feed mill is right across the street from where my staff meeting is.

I'm mainly interested in their low sugar/low starch feeds as I was feeding TizWhiz Structure and their feeds seem to be of similar type (owner of feed mill actually used Structure as a similar product recommendation, but said the Tribute one was better and what she switched to from the TizWhiz)

Thanks for your input!

Actually RM there are TWO companies made up of the former Buckeye people Tribute and Progressive... that being said it depends on which feed you are looking at :)

I can't say enough good about them. I use Essential K, it's a balanced rationer. My horses don't need a lot of calories just the nutrition from this feed is enough to give them awesome coats, feet ect. oh and of course I feed them lots and lots of hay!!

What kind of feed are you looking for??

I woudl go with the Eseential K and add calories from there IF needed.

just wanted info on the company and the quality of their feeds. I'll make my feed choices from there with the help of my friend (who co owns the ponies with me) and an equine nutritionist I know.
