Handful soaked readigrass, a cup of Thunderbrook base mix and (currently) Boswellia - twice a day.
Also, ad lib hay, as in never ending supply.

Restricted grazing in the day and hay at night. Then he has some high fi lite morning and night to put his supplement into.

Out 24/7 in summer on average grazing. Out during the day in winter, with ad lib hay at night.

Am & Pm feeds:
speedibeet: heaped small square scoop soaked
D&H Safe & Sound: heaped small square scoop
Pro Hoof
micronised linseed
Brewers yeast
sliced apple/carrot

May be upping the speedibeet soon though if it stays chilly...

As much hay as he can eat.

2 x feeds a day, each has;
1.5 x scoops of HiFi
1 x double handful micronised linseed

Looks great on this and has an amazing shine to his coat.
He has never been a good doer but has blossomed since cutting his feed back and simplifying it.

As much haylage as she can eat - which is a seriously eyewateringly huge quantity, especially as she's not getting turnout on grass at the moment!

Then speedibeet, micronised linseed, pro-hoof, salt, and a handful of pure condition (running it down with the intention of stopping it completely). She'll probably need something more when her workload goes back up to normal.
