Read what users have to say about getting their horse's nutrition right
FeedXL is the "new" Equilize Horse Nutrition software, now available on-line with new and improved features and benefits.
While FeedXL hasn't been used by anyone just yet, the Equilize software has been widely used by everyone from professional equine nutritionists such as Dr John Kohnke, nutrition lecturers, veterinarians, farriers, masseurs and equine dentists, through to thoroughbred and standardbred trainers, endurance riders, equestrians, breeders, pony club riders and recreational horse owners since 2004.
The results and benefits Equilize users have gained have been nothing short of incredible. Here is what just some of our Equilize users have to say:
Equilize is the most accurate and easy system to use. It's an excellent guide to what's in your horse's feed and whether its real needs are being satisfied. People with whom I work who are using Equilize have saved money on feed costs and they have been very happy with the results; it pays for itself.

I think your program is a wonderful addition to the efficiency and improvement of nutrition in the horse industry. I have a range of horses for different purposes and the program makes it so easy to adjust rations for all these variables, for example, brood mares, weanlings, yearlings, rehabilitation horses and pleasure horses.
I really like the program and honestly believe it has made a significant contribution to the horse industry. I have recommended it to other colleagues already.

Love using the Program! Three horses with different needs has made life challenging in the past and by working through this program I have been able to be certain the feed I am mixing for each supplies them with all they require. They are looking absolutely fantastic now that I have gone away from a "volume-based" meal to a "mineral-based" and more balanced meal. Their natures have altered also - subtly of course - but seem much calmer and more receptive to what we are working on. No more silly tantrums!!!
I believe it is the feed being more balanced and providing all they need. Now I have to work on ME!!! :-)

I have certainly been thinking of emailing you these last few days as both my distance and internal students have now used the Equilize program. The assignment this year was to use their own feedstuffs analysed in the lab. Usually I get them to do the maths for the ration formulation. I was a little worried that using the program would be the soft option but they have now had 2 x 2 hour sessions with the program and I am still kicking them out of the door at the end. I have them working in groups (there are about 25 students) and there is so much discussion and interaction between them all, I think they are learning more using the program than struggling with the maths as they have done in previous years. I am very keen to read their assignments.
So far everyone has had a ball with it.

Equilize is excellent because I was new to horses and never sure what I was doing. Now I can put in all my feeds and know I am on the right track. It has been very good for us.

I use the Equilize program to balance and fine tune all of my horse’s diets. Equilize enables me to get the absolute best out of my endurance horses and gives me the confidence I need in my feeding program to compete at a top level. Since using Equilize Joey and I have achieved four out of five 1st placing’s in the lightweight division of 80 – 100 km endurance rides and have been awarded Best Conditioned Horse on all of these occasions.

I recently started using Equilize and was excited by how easy it is. Now I am confident that my horse will be well fed, and I won’t be buying unnecessary supplements and over or under feeding him. Thanks so much for making this program. I can guarantee that a lot of horsey people are going to be very satisfied with your product!

We have found the Equilize software to be very user friendly, up to date, and efficient in equine feed balancing. It is also an invaluable tool in diagnosing suspected nutritional deficiencies. The database is extensive and regularly updated to include all commercially available equine rations. Equilize is a cost effective must for anybody involved in equine nutrition.

The Equilize program has taken the guessing out of horse nutrition which has bothered me for years. My horses are now getting a completely balance diet. They are showing improved performance, greater endurance and fantastic, shiny, silky, glossy coats. …
This program has enabled me to getting glowing healthy horses without the added ‘silliness and too much energy’ problem that guess work feeding has caused in the past.
Thank you!

Your Equilize Horse Nutrition program has been very useful to me personally and to our Equine Industry students. It has been used to help them understand the principles of nutrition and to apply them to their own situations. It has helped me to refine rations for racing horses, and horses in training.
Thank you very much for developing this program.

I have been using Equilize for about 6 months and will definitely keep using it! Equilize gives me the confidence that my horses get exactly what they need and as this software gives me the option to even put in my own horse feeds, Equilize is as acurate as a horse diet can get. This software is worth every single cent and my horses have never looked better.
