I purchased two weanlings about 1 month ago, one has a really bad Hay belly and they both had worms (which we have dewormed them 2 times with pyrantal paomate)..
They had little to no grain when I bought them and we have slowly worked them up to 2 cups per day of 16% protein sweet feed which has added beet pulp and contains 10% fat. we have also have added a couple cups of dengie (chopped alfalfa) 3 times per day.
How much do you feed for a 4 month old mini and what do you reccomemend to keep them looking their best. They have little to No grass in their paddocks but free choice timothy grass mix hay. We want them to have the best start and we plan to show them next spring so we need them to look fit and healthy, right now they have a backbone that is slightly raised and little muscleing. . Would love to hear some thought and opinions on what helps to build up their topline, supplements etc.
