Im looking to put our pony on a balancer but having never used one before and so many out there was looking to see what you all recommend, have spoken to a couple of companies but felt they were just trying to spend my money rather than pony being on correct balancer to suit her,(having done a little bit of research). She's well covered now which we need to maintain, but can be a little spooky/apprehensive when working on her own.
What do you all suggest.

I love the blue chip native pony balancer, don't know if your pony is a native or not.
Lots of people swear by topspec but I personally didnt like it.
My friend uses thunderbrooks Base mix with very good results for her Welsh d, he's a typical Welsh d and it doesn't make him daft.

I use gain opticare. I find it more economical as it comes in 25kg bags and I have everything on it from yearling to veteran, tb to traditional cob and they all do really well on it with no adverse reactions.
Swapped them once as the feed store had run out so got a well known, popular brand and within a couple of weeks you could see a negative difference. Swapped them back asap!

I have found the topspec stud balancer amazing, I'm hardly having to feed anything else with it & they are looking fab. Definitely saving money not having to feed lots of other things like I used to before using a balancer
