Lusters Pink Oil
Olive Oil spray and "pudding" for legs
Color
Mane and Tail

Found the products comparable to the other retailers no difference really for me.

Pink, shaving cream, and letric shave. I like the pink you buy at walmart better than sullivans, it doesn't seem to be as oily and weigh the hair down as much not to mention the price difference. Shaving cream is similar to sullivans mousse just a lot cheaper. Letric shave is good for cutting kleen sheen, its pretty much the same thing as lintement just cheaper.

What do you use the Melatonin for? I know my little sister has to use it because she has sleeping problems. But I dont think my steer has sleeping problems lol (I know its not to help them go to sleep)

In theory its suppose to make your hair grow by tricking the body into thinking its winter. Winter months melatonin is higher than other months some say due to lower light levels. It also is suppose to have a calming effect.

Melatonin is to calm them down. Just like your sister it relaxes he so she can sleep.

Pink, main & tail, fat supplement, calf manna which is cheaper than most stores but it comes in 20 lb. bags which is just a convince thing. Actually their milk re placer is less expensive too.

I have purchased most of the suggestions from above.  Theres a product called Motions that is a good product similar to pink.  We also purchase Infusium 23: Leave-In Treatment (Frizz)Ologie, 16 fl oz and Apple Cider vinegar if they have it.

What dye is the best off the shelf at wall mart?

Dog grooming brush. The ones with the little wire bristles sorta like a hair wizard, except 27$ cheaper and does the exact same thing.

 

[obie105]

I use the foam spray-n-wash to take out adhesives. Its $3 a can compared to $12 to $15 for hocus pocus. Does the same thing does not hurt the hair. We go to several shows a month and products to break down the hair is one of the most expensive things.

Infusium 23 conditioner works great on cattle, brings out the shine.
