SOMETIMES.... IGNORE THE NAME!! 🧐

Sometimes an unlikely product name might be just what your horse could benefit from. For example:

✅ Spillers Gro N Win: a stud balancer that is also excellent for muscle-wasted horses during rehab after injury/illness due to its high good quality protein content and elevated vitamins and minerals. Also useful to balance long-soaked hay where protein requirements are elevated e.g. PPID, and for horses with myopathies who need elevated good quality protein

✅ Bailey's Ease & Excel, Saracen's ReLeve and Dodson & Horrell ERS Cubes are all feeds for working horses needing a low starch diet for tying up/gastric ulcers, but all are relatively low starch medium energy compounds that are ideal for weight gain in any horse in light work. Their low starch content make them especially useful for fizzy, reactive horses.

✅ Dengie Alfa-A Oil: not just for working horses! Feed 1-2kg overnight (dampened) with the normal haynet to 'upgrade' nutritionally-poor forage

It's what's in the bag that your horse's body responds to, not what's on the bag

What examples do you have of feeds you've used with success, which are not an obvious choice?

⚖️Weigh the forage rather than the horse! ⚖️

I’ve seen lots of disappointed horse owners recently that have booked me to reweigh their horses & are surprised that they are still fat. In all these cases it had been due to over feeding forage….Tips…..

1. Weigh your nets so you know how much you are feeding.

2. Look at the minimum amount that I suggest on your ration sheet - if you’re feeding double that amount then you need to reduce it if you want to see a difference.

3. Just because your livery bill includes your hay/haylage don’t feel you have to get your moneys worth, you are not doing your horse any favours.

4. Stop obsessing about what your horse weighs & focus on the weight you are feeding them… You will then visually see that they have lost weight, because their body condition score comes down or the girth goes up another hole.

5. A spring balance to weigh your net only costs a couple of pounds!

If you need to restrict calories because your horse is fat the minimum forage is 1.5% of the horses bodyweight per day eg. 500kg horse = 7.5kgs per day.

🌱Spring grass is around the corner, now is time to act!
