WHAT MAKES REDMOND ROCK
DIFFERENT FROM A MINERAL BLOCK
Horse owners provide salts licks for horses to replace essential trace minerals and to trigger their thirst for water. But not all salt licks are created equal. Manufactured, pressed horse blocks usually contain six or seven artificially-added minerals. All-natural Redmond Rock has 63+ beneficial trace minerals for horses.
My horses are no longer eating the ground and licking everything in sight to find what’s lacking in their nutrition. They’re getting what they need every day as a free-choice supplement with Redmond Rock.

I have used the Redmond Salt rocks for several years. They are harder and last longer than conventional salt blocks. I like the mineral content as well. I just drop them in the bottom of my feed bins . My horses love these things !! (I started getting the rocks without ropes because my horse would grab it and take it out of the feed bin with the rope)

It took my horses a day or two but they love their new salt rocks! And, honestly, my older horses are already more bright-eyed and everyone seems happier. I am so glad I found Redmond!

I love the Redmond Rocks and how healthy they are for my horses. Also, your customer service is superb! When I called about the error with my order, you immediately sent another shipment to more than correct the error. Thank you for that! And thank you for a great product!

"During the summer, my horse Chicken always needed a fly sheet and mask to protect against irritation from flies and mosquitoes. Without this protection, he'd rub his mane out. Since feeding Crushed with garlic, I've seen a noticeable decrease in flies. Chicken isn't mane rubbing now, is drinking more, and no longer needs outer protection to ward off pests."

HORSES & GARLIC FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I feed my horse too much garlic?
The short answer is yes. Garlic induced anemia can happen quickly if your horse is snacking on wild garlic and onions growing in pastures, or slowly, as a result of over-supplementing. For a more detailed explanation, learn more here: https://blog.redmondequine.com/how-much-garlic-should-i-feed-my-horse
Does garlic cause anemia in horses?
Heinz body anemia often comes up when garlic and horses are considered. Feeding more than 0.4 grams per kilogram body weight of freeze-dried garlic has led to Heinz body anemia in horses. This is the equivalent of feeding a 500-kilogram (1,100-pound) horse 200 or more grams per day, which is just under half a pound. That's a lot of garlic! While this amount could easily be consumed by horses eating wild garlic growing in pastures it is unlikely you would give this amount on purpose.
What is the difference in feeding my horse garlic bulbs, garlic powder, or Redmond Garlic?
The garlic oil used in Redmond Rock Crushed with Garlic is 12x stronger than garlic alone. It is 25% more concentrated than gallium (a garlic additive manufactured in Italy). Redmond garlic is not a flavor, but rather a garlic oil that acts as functional food additive meant to improve animal health and performance. If you were to use dried garlic on your feed, you would be looking at 8-9x the cost to reach the same potency, and dosage accuracy would be incredibly hard to achieve.
Is Redmond Rock Crushed with Garlic safe to use year round?
We do not recommend that you use garlic for your horse year-round. Follow appropriate dosage instructions based on your horse’s size and use only during fly season (max 6 months consecutively).
Can I use Redmond Rock Crushed with Garlic at the same time as other Redmond products?
We always recommend using Redmond Rock Crushed with Garlic in combination with Daily Gold. However, Redmond Rock Crushed with Garlic and Daily Red are targeted to meet different needs and should not be fed together.
