I have just taken on two older mares (I am getting grazing in payment for helping out)
1 bay mare 15.2 TB - she is currently on Dengie Lite (I think) and a small type pony nut (no bag so I can't be sure what it is)
2nd bay mare 13.2 TB x Connie - also on the same feed
both girls are 20 years young.
Can anymore suggest anything that would help them? They don't have ad-lib hay (I feel there should get this due to the lack of grass at the moment, am I wrong in that thought?)
Both girls are still ridden every second weekend (when owners daughter is home)
Owner feel they are missing the love and attention they deserve (hence me)
Also I have never delt with sweat itch ( I believe the TB may suffer, again this is on an observation ) - just looking for advise - I will not proceed with anything before first consulting the owner.
This is also the same for any feed changes, I am looking for advise so I know how best to proceed.
Thank you in advance
