I read this fourm alot and am wondering about feeding. The boys were on a diet of pellets when I got them. And still are. They get 1# twice a day plus a about a 1/4 of a flake of hay, Timothy or orchard grass at night as a treat.
Dar B has a belly on him that just wont quit. He is wormed regularlly with ivercare but it doesnt go away. I work him , not as often as I should but with the heat I thought it was better not to as it has been in the 90's by 10 am. That is like only a few hours after he eats. And he doesnt run at all unless he sees me coming with food. And I mean at all. Actually I have been lunging him and doing some liberty and he will trot almost on command.
But now I am worried I am not doing something I should be doing. And the last thing I want to do is hurt them.
The pellets they get ate alfalpha/ oat pellets 12 percent protein. And he has had the same amount since he was just 2. he is a little more than two and a half now.
He doesnt have any bones sticking out anywhere, nice top line, no backbone knobs. Thanks for the help
Oh and the sunflower seed, that is shells and all that you feed them?
