How important for them to have increased protein in their diets? Does it actually make a difference to their top line or is it a losing battle past a certain age?
I was just looking at the spec for Keyflow Golden Oldies balancer mash which is high in protein at 30%.

I feed my 25yr WB old Pink Mash (12% protein) 3 mini trug (similar to mug size) a day plus extra mini trug full micronised linseed, unmollased Top Spec Lite chaff, pro-balance a bit of mag-ox and Buteless which I believe is competition legal. He looks and feels fab but is losing top line. Can I or should I feed more protein? If so what? I know the linseed is a good protein source but wondered about others.

Or is there anything else that I should feed for optimum health?
Thanks
