Choosing a feed? High protein, low starch.
Now I am not tied to part livery, I can chose my own feed.
My horse works hard, and I’d like something high protein, low starch and sugar, and not particularly processed.
Most of his calories will come from meadow hay / meadow grass. I’d like to top up the protein and have a tasty carrier for the power balancer and electrolyte.
He’s currently on Saracen’s Re-leve, readigrass, micronized linseed, linseed oil, forage plus balancer.
Ideally one feed that is palatable and will carry the powdered balancer, and salt and electrolytes:
Ideas
Things like sugarbeet / alfabeet don’t seem very palatable to him
Another option is a lower protein balancer, and to top up with Tri-amino acids?
