"No other hoof supplement is as good as this one. I started my young horse on this three years ago and have managed to keep him barefoot ever since b/c he grows strong hoof and a lot of it. He is a jumper and is ridden six days a week on all terrain of footing.
My project horse had horrible feet that needed special shoes and kept loosing them. After six months of this product, he has not lost a shoe since (2 years) and has beautiful strong feet.
This product blew my farrier's mind! I think this supplement is amazing and is the best hoof supplement especially for the price. I chose it b/c of the quality of ingredients and the flax base which is so healthy for our horses."

"My horses eat this without any fuss and I believe it has helped a lot for their hooves not to chip off(barefoot). They don't seem to be as itchy as before. I just started using this in January so I'm excited to see their coats in the spring after they shed out due to the Omega3 ingredients. I had one horse (dark bay) dapple last year because of the SmartOmega3."

"I initially bought Bioflax because I know TBs are notorious for having thin hoof walls, and my mare and I love trail riding. After 3-4 months of using this, I honestly haven't noticed a difference in my mare's feet, but my farrier says her feet are stronger and healthier. She's the hoof expert, so I trust her!"

"I have had Shah on this for a long time now and it's a great product at a GREAT price! The thing I am most impressed with is the fact that it does indeed prevent hoof cracking. Shah has always had great hooves but sometimes in the summer they will crack a little as his feet grow - I have not noticed any more small cracks from the dryness since he has been on BioFlax 20. I also use this in conjunction with Focus Senior which also contains flax. Overall, great product for any budget with results!"

"I had my horses on Farrier's Formula Double Strength for a while. I wanted to cut back pennies so I decided to look around. I switched to Smart Hoof and it unfortunately did not work for my horse. I thought about going back to Farrier's Formula but wanted to give it another shot, so I found this. It works (at least for my horses) as well as regular farrier's formula and I have noticed no difference from the double strength. When I got my 3 year old her feet were awful, and we were not even sure if she would stay sound. I put her on this right away and almost a year later she looks amazing, and doesn't even need hind shoes."

"This is a high quality supplement. Within 3 months, hoof cracks & dryness have gone- coat condition much improved. Quite supportive for allergy coat conditions. Impressive sheen on the horse's coat. Hoof growth is improved. A good value for the money."

"I've had my OTTB on this for about 2 months now and I can notice a BIG difference in his coat condition. He is so shiny and you can finally start to see his dapples show. His feet are starting to look a bit better but that will take more time to see a difference. So far I am very happy with it as I always am with my HorseTech products!"

"BioFlax 20 has given two of my horses strong, fast-growing hooves, plus intensely colored, sleek and shiney coats. It doesn't happen overnight, but after about 2-3 months feeding of BioFlax 20, the effect is noticable. I sold one horse 6 months ago & saw her recently. She doesn't look as sleek, and I found she's not getting BioFlax 20 any longer. It's a great value, but I wish it came in pelleted form for ease of feeding."

"This does not last the the 80 days it says. It lasted about 47. Therefore, the .47 a day is not true. I switched to HoofSOLID that local place carries. That is only .48 and it has a digestions supplement in it.
The supplement itself was awesome, farrier noticed a huge difference. Just NOT worth the price. My picky eater ate it no problem"

"I could definitely tell a difference in his skin and coat. Hoofs will take about year to determine. My horse shed off really nicely except for his midsection. The supplement was a good choice to shed off after spring and look amazing at competitions. I am definitely getting good compliments!"

"Have used this on several horses and it is amazing! Talk about show ring shine! Farrier noticed a difference in hooves and everyone notices the soft, silky coats! Love it!! My horses all eat it fine, although a few of them weren't sure about it at first, now they lick their buckets clean."

"I rescued a 5 year old chestnut mare with horrible feet. I liked the idea of putting her on a flax seed based supplement, especially for its anti-inflammatory properties. After 4 months, we have strong, healthy hooves. She kept her first set of shoes (ever) on for a solid 8 weeks and her hooves keep getting better. Her coat is beautiful, nice and shiny. I will keep her on BioFlax for as long as it's around. Thank you SmartPak for supplying it!"

"BioFlax 20 is the best supplement I think I have ever given my horse! He's a 17 year old Thoroughbred and not only are his hooves growing stronger, but his coat is the shiniest I've ever seen it! I live in Colorado where all the horses grow shaggy winter coats and he is by far the shiniest horse in the barn! People will stop me and ask what I am feeding him because he is so shiny! I have tried so many hoof supplements in the past and this has by far given him the best results. Whereas before he was throwing shoes left and right, I cant even remember the last time he lost one, even in such a dry climate! If you want a supplement that gives you everything all in one (coat, skin and hooves), I would 100% recommend this one......and the price couldn't be better! The picture I attached was from January, with his winter coat."

"Every horse at our barn is on this supplement. It is AMAZING. The horse's feet grown stronger, faster. Their coats dapple out in the summer and grown long and silky in the winter. Most horses are JUST on bioflax, and no other hair coat/hoof supplement, so we know it is ALL from this great product. For the price, its rediculous NOT to put your horse on this!"

"I left a review on this product once already but I wanted to update that...I started my gelding on BioFlax20 for his hooves...not only has it made a difference in his hooves but WOW talk about shine!! Even with his long winter hair he is so soft, silky, and shiney!! He gets compliments everywhere we go! He eats it right up too. Since I saw all these great things with him I started giving it to two of my mares as well. Just started giving it to them yesterday so no changes obviously but thought I would mention that they don't seem to like it much. One did get it down but the other won't touch her grain at all with BioFlax20 in it. So while I do love this supplement, it's palatability is questionable for some horses."

"We have had our horses on BioFlax 20 for 4 weeks now. We bought it hoping it would improve our horses dry cracked hooves, and hopefully, help build resiliency in our draft cross mare with EPSM and seedy toes. All I can say is WOW! We are not only getting "oilier" less cracked feet, but also seeing faster growth and thicker walls, even in our EPSM mare! The oil we have had her on for a long time helps alleviate her muscle tightness, but did not do the trick on her feet. It wasn't until we started using this product, that we now see that she is FINALLY going to have normal feet!!!"
