Trailering Question

Hi Everyone, 
  I sure have enjoyed the discussions lately :-)

Our new filly - LFF Valena - Flotren's filly :-) is coming from outside of
Buffalo, NY to our place outside of Ottawa, Ontario tomorrow (weather
permitting). It will be an 8 to 10 hour trip for her - poor little thing. I
was wondering if we should feed her a soupy bran mash on her arrival? Or her
normal dry oats? Or skip the dinner all together? Its such a long trip for a
little foal I want to make sure she's comfortable on her arrival.

 To join in quickly with the age discussion... I'm 38, my husband Carm is
46, we have 4 fjord horses, 2 dogs (was 3 till Tuesday morning - our old
girl died in her sleep - I can't really believe that she's gone - we will
miss her alot), 1 cat, and we breed parrots - we have one African Grey Congo
as a pet, and 10 others paired up (African Grey Congos, Blue & Gold Macaws,
and Eclectus). Both my husband and I work way too many hours in the
high-tech industry. I live for the minutes in the barn :-)
