We have used different feeds off and on, from just the basic sweet feed to several different types of Omolene, etc. What do I really need to look for in a good feed? I am really confused about it all.
What part of the feed makes them act "hot" and hyped up when you are trying to ride and work with them? Is it the sweet aspect or the protein aspect that you need to watch? What is the criteria feed needs to have so that my horses get what they need and not act silly? Everyone seems to be against sweet feed, so what makes it bad?
Lately, I have been using Omolene Senior and Omolene 300, but they are so much more expensive and there does not seem to be a lot of difference protein wise from the standard sweet feed at our feed store...plus the Omolene Senior still seems to have a "sweet" aspect to it. Any suggestions or thoughts??
Thanks!
