What information will I need for my consultation?

You'll need the following details about your horse:

  • Basic Information: Name, age, breed, and gender

  • Workload: Activity level and training intensity

  • Living Environment: 24/7 turnout, stabling, or a mix

  • Current Diet: Pasture, hay, feed, and supplements (with exact weights)

  • Body Measurements & Condition: Instructions for assessment will be provided

Will I need anything/equipment?

You'll need the following tools:

  • Feed & Supplement Scale – A kitchen scale that measures in grams, ounces, and pounds

  • Hay Scale – A fish or luggage scale for weighing hay

  • Weigh Tape or Fabric Tape – At least 60" long for calculating body weight

Do I need to have a current hay analysis?

No. While a current hay analysis can be very useful, it is not always practical or necessary, especially if you change hay sources frequently.

Will you consider feeds/supplements that are readily available to me?

Absolutely. While the first priority is to formulate a well balanced diet, the second priority is to meet the client where they are at and what is readily available to them.

Would you be willing to create a diet that does not contain any commercial feeds?

Of course. We are always willing to work with a client's personal preferences when possible.
