This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] We struggle with Della Ree's weight. She currently gets 1 c. beet pulp daily (used to mix in her pro-biotics and Omega-3 supplements). No grazing, and 4 flakes of grass hay daily. She has been slowly putting weight on with this regimen, so we are trying to exercise her more.
Joe is maintaining nicely with this regimen (although I give him 6 flakes of hay - he was looking a bit peaked over the summer) Kate ----- Original Message ---- From: Kristie Strange <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: fjordhorse@angus.mystery.com Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2008 10:23:38 PM Subject: Ration Balancer? This message is from: "Kristie Strange" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I need Fjord Feed Advice. :D I have a four year old, very easy keeper, mare and I really have to watch her weight. This time of year she's mostly a pleasure horse, and we trail ride a couple times a week. She will get more excercise and schooling come Spring, but we're taking it easy for the winter. Right now she gets about a cup of Triple Crown lite mixed with a cup of soaked beet pulp shreds, twice a day. She is on very limited pasture (I let her graze2-3 hours a day), and gets plenty of grass hay in between. I'm satisfied with her weight, don't want her to get any bigger, but I think her coat and overall apperance could be better. Purina rep suggested Enrich 32 RB, and he made it sound really good. But then I go reading on the internet about soy and founder and now I'm confused. Should I try a ration balancer? Or perhaps add a vit. supplement to what I'm currently feeding? Or just leave well enough alone? What do you guys feed your Fjords?
