Should I mix this feed?

[paddy5710]

My new horse is coming home next weekend. He is a 16.2hh tb who needs to put some weight on. I have bought 'cool and condition' conditioning cubes from blue grass and was going to mix sugarbeet with it, but after looking at the ingredients it already has sugarbeet in it.

Should I just feed the mix as it is or is there anything I could mix into it instead of sugarbeet?

why do you need to mix anything with it?

Can't you just feed it in larger quantities, build it up to larger feeds over a week or two, or given lots of small meals a day. I realise this isn't always feasible.
