Feeling overwhelmed by all the internet feeding advice? You're not alone! With so many opinions, it’s easy to feel confused. But here's the thing—it doesn't have to be complicated!
Quick Tips:
-
If it's working, don't change it.
If your horse is happy, healthy, and thriving on their current diet, no need to shake things up. -
If it's not working, figure out why first.
Before you make drastic changes, assess what's going on. Is your horse getting enough of the "Big 3"? That means:-
Fiber for digestion and gut health
-
Protein for muscle maintenance and recovery
-
Fat for energy and coat condition

- Don’t Fall for Marketing Gimmicks:

Contrary to what some say, oats can be a solid, basic feed option. They’re not the evil grain people make them out to be.
