  • Naturally helps support the protective layers of the bowel and assists in reducing the risk of sand colic in horses

Psyllium for Horses Pellet Fiber Supplement - Tucker Robinson On Stylish Little Oak

Horses that graze on sandy ground may ingest sand and dirt that may accumulate in the intestinal tract causing stomach discomfort and digestive issues. Psyllium seed husks combined with water form a gelatinous substance that flows through the horse's intestinal tract, helping to decrease sand and dirt accumulation in the gut. For best results, use UltraCruz Equine Psyllium Fiber ® Supplement for horses as a monthly supplement to aid in the intestinal cleansing and to support normal digestive function in your horse.

For horses that cannot digest molasses or do not need extra sugar, we recommend using our UltraCruz® Equine Pure Psyllium for horses, which provides the benefits of psyllium supplement, while containing 100% pure psyllium seed husk.

have used a few psyllium products. what makes this one different? I don't see serving instructions meaning: do you serve by it self (does it get gummy and cause a choke) do you mix it with a feed, do you wet it: a lot or spritze it. Need specifics.

Asked by: CDIGO

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fussy Horse FriendlyI purchased this about 3 weeks ago and just thrilled with it. I have an 27 year old who is SUPER FUSSY and just loves these pellets, my other guy eats everything. It was my first purchase from Santa Cruz and I was super impressed with the First Class service even though I only purchased the pellets I was treated like a major buyer. Free shipping was wonderful, plus the pellets come in a wonderful resealable bag, it's a tough bag but it came in a sturdy box plus bubble wrap. So it arrived safe and sound. All I can say I will be purchasing more products from SantaCruz.! Wonderful Products and SUPER service. Thanks

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Better flavor then other PsylliumI have struggled to get my horse to eat any other psyllium supplement and I have tried over 7 different kinds. This is the only supplement I have been able to get him to eat. He isn't 100 per cent wild about it but I add it with his other supplements, what made it a big hit was when I started feeding your coat supplement with it. He gobbles that down. I love the fact that it is pelleted and the flavor is the only one that he will touch. I will continue to buy this from now on. Best product out there in my horses mind. I tried one other pelleted psyllium but it was banana flavored and he hated it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Thank you for such amazing costumer serviceThank you for such amazing costumer service. I received your product fast, well packaged. I was very impressed by the quality. I had the hardest time getting my horses to eat psyliium husk and i tried a bunch of different brand of pellets on the market (that they wouldnt eat either). Your brand is the first one they actually eat without minding and even wanted more! Adding apple flavor to it is a genius idea. Happy horses and a happy mum. :)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from UltraCruz Psyllium Fiber and moreWonderful product - I've been using this for years. My horses won't eat the more generic products from the feed store (even if mixed with grain) - but they love this product. I board and several of my fellow boarders now use this and swear by it. I also use the coat conditioning supplement and love that as well. Even through he is muddy in the winter he still has a glossy, healthy coat underneath. I usually order the two products in the larger sizes and that qualifies for free shipping. UltraCruz products are all trustworthy and high quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Peace of MindI love this product! For starters it's pre-measured. I board my horses, and these pre-measured packages work great. I know that my horses are getting the correct amount each and every time. This is a game changer and a time saver, instead of spending an hour or so putting together little baggies (out of a big bag) for each of my mares I simply write each horses name on the individual servings with the date to feed and viola I have peace of mind! The price, quality of ingredients and convenience can't be beat in my opinion.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Purchasing from Santa CruzI love this product and so do my horses and donkeys ! Other psyllium pellet brands I have used over the many years they have turned up their noses at and left them all in the bottom of the feeders. They clean up all of these ! Their prices on all products cannot be beat. When you have 10 to 15 head the price and quality make a huge difference. The packaging is great on Santa Cruz products with strong Velcro closure so it reseals tightly for storage until the next use. I am so thankful for the day I found Santa Cruz.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super palatable and cost efficientAfter comparing psyllium prices I found this product to be the most economical. When needing to sand clear 7 horses it can get pricey and plus we have a couple picky eaters in the bunch. I decided to try the Ultra Cruz Psyllium and am so glad I did. Not only was the price great but it was super palatable and every single horse cleaned it up. No wasted money with supplements at the bottom of the bucket and not extra additives to get them to finish it off. This will be the only psyllium we will use from now on!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ultracruz psyllium pelletsUltracruz psyllium fiber pellets are by far the easiest to feed of all the other psyllium I’ve tried. The horses actually eat them. I’ve been using it it for several years, and I will continue to use it. Thank you Santa Cruz for another great product.
