User reviews

Excellent app for a knowledgeable horseman

This is a great app of you know how to read read tags and have a basic concept of ration balancing. I am recommending it to all of my clients (I am a breeder/trainer with a PhD in animal nutrition). If gives you the info you need without a lot of clutter and unnecessary extras. All you need is your feed tags for mixed products and an idea of what forage you feed (you can look up all basic feedstuffs via the NRC tables and get an average value).

I really don’t understand the reviews that say “not enough data.” Why would you want preprogrammed feed information when it changes over time, even in an established product, and it is really easy to get a feed tag from your current feed and look up the averages based on the type of forage you are using from the NRC database if it isn’t provided for you from your dealer. It’s a great app, especially in comparison to the other options out there that charge a ridiculous amount simply because they have a database of outdated feed tags and supplements (why would you trust those when it can change at any time, so you need to check your product anyway)?

Don’t buy this app!

This app does not work! Paid $2.99 to open the app and it go to a blank white screen and do nothing! What a disappointment.

Feeds not on the list

Please can you update your list
I use benchmark feeds and Mitavite feeds. These are not on your list in the app. And it’s no point adding it as your list of nutrient does not contain everything also. Wasted my $

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. In order to keep the app reasonably priced I haven’t spent a long time adding all possible feeds. We have users in many different countries and it isn’t feasible. I’m happy to add feeds for you if you contact me enc@horsebytes.ca The nutrient list is quite comprehensive and based on the “Nutrient Requirements of Horses” research book. Many feed companies provide slightly different information. It looks like the Mitavite feeds split the carbs out into starch, wsc and esc. We don’t see that much here in North America. Looks like all of these things add up to total NSC so that’s what I would enter them as. Hope that helps
