Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum. I have been in the horse world for 6 years and took some driving lessons last year with minis and loved it. I recently purchased my first mini. He is 4 and a total love. I am showing him in hand and hope to train him to drive in the future. My question is what is the best diet to have minis on? For example which type of forage, and since he is being worked regularly is any grain needed? Ive read that minis can become overweight but I also want to make sure he is getting all the vitamins he needs. Right now he is on free choice good quality local no grain and he has access to a salt block. His body condition to me looks good but I want to make sure hes not lacking anything with the work load. Thank you for any help.
