I'm at a complete loss here now trying pour the feed to feed Holly 3 times a day plus keep free choice hay in front of her. Yes she is fat. No way can I feel any ribs.

Why are you pouring the feed into Holly? Why does anyone feed their mares for 2? I never change the feed of my broodmares, except that I start adding a tiny bit more alfalfa in the last month, to get them ready for the increase I give a week or so after foaling.
I keep reading that people are feeding their mares for pregnancy and it continues to puzzle me. WHY DO YOU DO THIS?????????? They don't really need anyting more until after the baby is born. Unless of course, you have special nutrient deficencies.
