Just wondered if there was someone more knowledgeable than me.
I have a windsucker who is possibly ulcer prone but i cannot get her scoped for a few months as she is on loan, however my vet has advised to feed her as though she has ulcers so: no cereals, low starch etc.
The thing is; i have noticed she windsucks/cribs more when shes eaten her current feed and i wondered if there is something in there that shouldnt be?
Topspec Comprehensive balancer
Speedibeet
Soya Oil
Topspec Topchop Alfa lite.
Anyone got any ideas? The only thing i can do is slowly start stopping each one until i can figure out which one prompts the cribbbing reaction as today she came in, was in for an hour with hay (didnt crib) had a long hack and came back and was in again for around an hour with hay (didnt crib) then within 5 mins of her finishing her hard feed she was cribbing. Theres obviously something in there thats upsetting her but all of them are recommended for ulcer prone horses.
Anyone had any experiecne with any of these feeds?
Thanks
