Good Morning!!
Just a couple of reminders for the cold weather:

1. For horses, good water intake is essential during cold weather. To encourage drinking here are a couple of tips:
a) To encourage your horses to drink during this cold snap, please add a tablespoon of salt or electrolytes to their feed once daily.
b) Another way to increase water intake is to soak there grain in hot water. This will also help to produce heat in their bodies.
c) Remove ice from outside water tubs and if possible top up with buckets of hot water.

2. Feeding extra hay is a good way to help horses produce body heat.
a) If you are going to give extra hay, please start today giving 1 extra flake one time daily. This way there is less chance for them to gorge themselves when they have a lot in front of them this weekend.

3. Provide a shelter or a wind break if possible.

Stay warm and safe!!!

The weather is turning cooler - time to add electrolytes to your horse's daily routine!!

During cooler weather horses continue to consume the same amount (and sometimes more) hay each day but they back off on how much water they drink. Adding electrolytes to their daily routine encourages them to drink more and stay hydrated.

Good hydration is one of the key ways to help prevent impaction colic.
