I am trying to come up with a ndiet for my 17hh tb who hopefully will be being rehabbed barefoot if my vets stop faffing and I stop getting shouty at them. Ideally I want a diet that I can up quantities when (and if ) he comes back to full work rather than changing completely from what I am feeding now. From reading everyones posts,ideas etc I need to stay away from molasses,cereals,alfa a and take care over when he is turned out ( have the lami app now ) as much as possible - I currently have at my disposal (the joys of having three very different horses
) just grass,alfa a molasses free, d and h high fibre cubes, d and h equine sensitive (how good does this smell ??? ) fast fibre, show improver pencils, crushed oats, linseed lozenges and crushed barley - can I combine any of this to make a suitable diet or do I need to go and quiz my feed man again
The horse in question is big both in height and length so has a tendency to run up light very easily and also has the tendency of a slug when ridden which can lead to bad behaviour (rearing,bucking etc if he hasn't got the energy ) Any advice would be very very much appreciated
