For those of you that feed beet pulp...
Do you feed year round?
Just in winter?
Always soak?
Pellets or shreds?
With or without molasses?
I tweaking my feed program a little and just wanted some more information.
I'm currently feeding homegrown grass hay (mix of brome, assorted wheatgrasses and prairie grass), Progressive Nutrition grass balancer pellets, [COB and senior (primarily for my senior full-size gelding, but my mini stallion does get 1/2 cup of the COB)], and soaked beet pulp pellets (no molasses). I have little to no selection here and don't plan to buy beet pulp from the same source again (which means if I want more beet pulp, I'll have to drive 130 miles one-way to pick up bulk pellets). The current source of beet pulp pellets are really dirty; misc non-bp pellets, oats, bolts and nuts, rocks and corn (I'm sorting every bag to feed just the bp, I bought three bags at one time - no point in taking it back (65 miles one-way), although I will be complaining, not that it'll do me any good, the feed store had new employees since I bought the bags :no: ).
