After getting Loki 13 years ago, I learned from his previous owner that he
needed beet pulp to keep him from having "cow piles". He has a very sensitive
digestive system and still gets "runny" at times so I go through our usual

with 1 quart of beet pulp...I put in just enough water as not to burn or let

Hi; I have had the same problem with my horses. Just to let you know I have
seen it running down the legs and the gas that goes with it, well I have the
smartest vet. He told me to mix beet pulp with soy pellet(half and half)
soaked and feed them alittle
pt for the runny rear end which just started up again in the fall. It
seems to be related to the weather also. When there is a sudden change in
temperature it gets a little worse. Has anyone else noticed this?
I'm really interested in the comments about beet pulp. How much should be
by looking how much their getting...
I also
had an Arabian mare some time ago who also had that sensitive stomach.
She thrived on the beet pulp...
I give it to my dogs also when they need a
nice warm breakfast
Hope this helps
Susan...

i had read beet pulp can help with loose manure. As an experiment, I measured

Hi, Susan from Co. For those of you using beet pulp, please be careful . Beet
pulp can put weight on your fjords and the sugar content is not good either.

to alot of other horse breeds, quarter horses , etc. when
