Best Answer

Corn oil in horse feed is a great additive to help gain weight and a shiny coat. Start off with no more than a fourth a cup divided into the horses normal ration or feed, feed for two days increase to a half a cup, feed for two days increase to 3\4 cup for two days and then get up to a cup.

If the horse is a draft horse or that of which weighs over 1700 lbs than you can go up to two cups. Increasing by a fourth a cup over a two day period, if you see a change in your horses behavior or see them rolling more than regular or keep "rubbing" their stomach with their head check for colic, if they do develop colic then stop using the oil and try back with 1\8 of a cup over a weeks time till you get to either a cup or two cups.

Many stores carry their own brand of corn oil and it will usually cost less than name brands and it works just the same.

It depends solely on who buys the corn. Most corn is used for human or animal consumption.

There are other products, such as corn oil, which as additional uses after it is used for cooking. Many fast food restaurants use soybean, peanut, or corn oil to fry foods.
