Can you feed a Senior feed to any stage of production?

MINERAL HAIR TESTING -- FACT OR FICTION?

The problem with asking “What is your favorite feed?”

As we transition into fall, many of us are more reliant on hay as the primary forage for our horses as the grasses slowly die off or go into dormancy phase. In an attempt to “cover all the bases “ and in an effort to ensure that we are providing adequate minerals, vitamin, protein and energy in our horses’ diets, many of us feel we have to supplement with fortified feeds/grains.

Choosing the correct “balancer” for your horse’s forage-based diet…

The level of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC), the combination of sugars and starches in the diet, is an increasing area of focus when choosing a feed for your equine companion.

As we enter the dog days of winter, it is not uncommon for our hay stores to run low. For some, this poses a challenge if there is not a sufficient supply of quality hay for sale nearby. One might have to resort to a forage alternative, to make it through to spring when the grass again becomes prevalent.
