equine pellet bedding

So, what are you saying???

He's saying they work.... Lol

No what is he saying really? Is he moving to warmer climates? Is he going to take a new job in a different country where TSC doesn't have representation. Is he going "away" on "vacation" for a few years to life?

He's not gonna be here next year. Obviously, he's dying.



Or maybe just moving to St. Croix. He's much smarter than the rest of us. brrrrrrrrrr. Is winter over yet?

Maybe he is saying he is going over to the dark side and burning oil..

I was surprised by them also. They are more then pellets around here though.

They most certainly do.

Dah ! He's saying when everyone is trying to push grass seed and gas grills, that equine pellets will work to keep our homes warm !

If you think about it, wood pellets aren't being ordered so supply will quickly be exhausted but horsey folks need bedding pellets year round. Just something to have in your back pocket when all else fails. FWIW, the equine pellets burned better with less ash and clinkers than some of them"real" pellets I tried this year and they had the best pine fragrance of any pellet I used.

I agree. The equine pellets bedding has been a lifesaver this year.

may have ta give them a try lol wonder if they burn good with corn like im doing now

I've been trying them and they burn just fine with good heat but extremely ashy. Like 3X the ash of Somersets.

There are a lot of pellets that have 3X the ash of Somerset's.

I haven’t tried many different pellets, first season burner, but the three I've tried have been all pretty close to the same. I'd heard on here softwoods give much less ash so I was expecting the ash of these pine pellets to be low, not many times greater. No biggie really, just opposite what I expected. My ash pan could go a couple weeks before and not be full, now a week and its overflowing and filling in all the gaps around the stove and piling up a few inches high across the bottom of the glass. But for the price per btu of these I don't mind cleaning it out more frequently.

Interesting observations. I've been pretty happy with the ash levels of the bedding pellets. Last year's somersets were very ashy for me, so ashy in fact that I bought the bedding pellets for my SCF 050 furnace because the Sets were just too ashy for it. My CPM handled the Sets fine, but I had to clean pretty often. The bedding pellets had easily 1/2 or less the ash that the Sets did.

me too. Been burning Somersets for as long as I've had a pellet stove. These were the worst ever. Still a good pellet but they were ashy and didnt seem to throw the heat they normally do. I was really fed up with the quality of the bag tho year. They kept splitting open when stacking. Had to handle them like a carton of eggs to keep them from blowing out several bags weren't even sealed completely on the side seam and pellets were everywhere. I dropped one bag from waist level and the top seam split wide open throwing pellets everywhere. I was pretty fed up. I'm beginning to think they must be importing from china.

oh, I meant the bags...lol. Didnt know they made pellets in china.

ill get some pics. Its not like I'm tossing them from the roof top or anything.

I think the handi wrap I use to wrap my sandwiches for work seem heavier

yeh I had that happen several times too. They must really be making a huge profit this year. $100 a ton more then last year and skimping on plastic.

Once bitten twice shy. I'm going to wood for primary heat next year. I'm filling up the propane tank for the first time in 7 or 8 years. They will be lucky if I buy half a ton of pellets next year. If i do it will probably be equine because they really did throw more heat then my Somersets. Take that pellet industry....lol. You wont be getting $1800 out of me next year. I sure hope others follow and leave them falling on their ass next year.
