I am a distributor for California Trace Minerals. I use to suggest a popular NW supplement but it is without biotin (also costs more per day) and I started to see hoof wall separation. CA Trace Minerals meet all the vitamin/mineral and hoof (biotin) needs of Washington equines being fed a grass hay diet.
I feed CA Trace to my own horses, with a handful of timothy pellets as a carrier, or soaked beet pulp, and 1 oz. of loose salt. I suggest adding 1 oz. of loose salt, or using a white salt block (I do both), when feeding CA Trace. A red mineral block is high in iron, and blocks copper absorption, which leads to an imbalance in the minerals you feed.
