I bought a bag of shredded beet pulp and soaked 2 cups for the horses to sample.
They didnt like it plain so I threw in a half a cup of sweet feed and they all wanted more! Guess they just thought it needed a little spiceing up.
Ok my question... How much should I feed Molly? I searched back threw previous posts and found most are giving minis 1 cup AM and 1 cup PM but what would you feed a 14.3HH 18 year old nurseing mother of 1 large soon to be weaned foal?
She is currently eating 2 flakes of grass hay AM, 1 flake around 3PM, 1 flake around 5PM and 3 flakes at 9PM along with 8 pounds of grain spred through out 3 meals, the grain is a senior, mare and foal, and oats mix. (I dont know if you need to know all this..) Shes also getting sand clear, source, corta-flex, mare plus, and weight builder.
What happened to the good old days when 3 flakes and a cup of sweet feed kept her OVER WEIGHT? Sigh.
Do you think 2 cups (Measureing it while its dry) 3 times dailey along with her grain would add a little weight to her?
