Hi Kristie,
A product I have been using for a couple of years now is from Sweet Pro and
comes in 2 forms - Equilix (solid in a tub) and Equipride (granual form) I like
the Equilix tub form and each horse has a tub to eat free choice. This is a

Thanks everyone for the information. I will cut out the beet pulp. That
makes sense. I started feeding it to our Paso gelding, since he has been
following Izzy's feeding routine and he could use the extra calories.But
no, Izzy

Hi Kristie, I didn't realize that it was her coat quality you wanted
nutritional help with, rather than her weight--sorry! There is nothing
better for a horses's coat than Flax seed and the fats it provides.
Horsetech.com makes an amazing flax

If you are considering testing thyroid, I would also
join the Cushings Yahoo list and learn about the
testing protocols they recommend for horses that are
very easy keepers.

Hi Kristie,
My advice is to read Feeding and Care of the Horse by Lon D. Lewis. If you
read the feed bag labels, you will also find that Triple Crown Lite and
Nutrena Lite feeds have the mineral and vitamin quantities equal to the best

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

Hi Curt,
I know that the feeds claim to have all the vitamins and minerals a
horse needs, BUT we feed our Fjords LESS than the normal amount a
regular horse would get, so they are getting shorted on the vitamins

There is something called grass balancer that I think is made by Seminole and
I'm sure other companies have the same thing. It is for horses that are mostly
on hay or forage. They have one if you are feeding just grass hay and one if

Hi Kristie,
I agree with Curt Pierce's recommendation regarding Lewis' book on
nutrition. It is an excellent book and I refer to it often. Lewis cites
tables and requirements established by the National Research Council. The

She was a bit trimmer during the summer when we were working fairly
regularly, but I think she looks OK weight wise. Again, I just wish

Hi Kristie, I am no expert, but I sure do research and obsess over
equine nutrition.
So here is what I think, for wha tit's worth: skip the beet pulp.
Although it provides fiber (which is good) it is very rich and horses
get fat on it easily. If

I suggest you subscribe to the Yahoo Cushings group
and read their files. And to do so, even if you do
not believe your horse has cushings. It would take a
while, but you will learn enough about horse
nutrition to make your own
