Hi Tammy
Thank you so much! I think the c-oil has improved their coats. We've been using it now since early spring.
This is what I use, their may be other places that sell the same quality but I've been happy with this thus far:
Healthy Buyer's Club - Virgin Coconut Oil Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil - Certified Organic from Tropical Traditions
I usually buy the quart jars.
Just a warning about starting them on it, you should start with a very small amount, like just an 1/8 tsp every other day until their bodies adjust to it. When I first heard about supplementing with coconut oil, I just gave them all 1/2 tsp with their food and they had diarhea.
So I reduced it to 1/8 tsp and worked up to 1/4 to 1/2 over a couple weeks span. They are all under 5 lbs, so the dosage could go up or down depending on the weight.
They LOVE the taste, and have taken it right off the measuring spoon
but I always poor it over their breakfast
