This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have been giving them a handful of beet pulp for about a year, just to mix their supplements into (per the advice of Beth Valentine, draft horse nutritional "expert". The vet suggested making it even wetter than it is (actually leaving it soupy rather than just fully soaked and expanded, and adding a teaspoon of salt for good measure if it looked like they were not drinking enough. Hard to tell which they'd prefer - beet pulp or hay, but I'm pretty sure if the calorie choice was theirs, they'd stick with the hay!! Kate
