What do you feed your natives?

[golddustsara]

Further to 'What do you feed your TBs' what does everyone feed their natives?

My connie gets a scoop of Alfa A Oil, scoop of horse and pony cubes and a balancer.

Nowt except hay. She's a fat thing, and only has hay as the others need it.
I can't keep her seperate till my fields dry out.

Hifi, speedibeet and high fibre cubes at the moment, but both are starting to look a bit porky!

 

[AFlapjack]

My Connie gets Alfa A, horse & pony cubes, Pink Powder, Superflex and Relax Me. He is also on haylage!

 

[Jane_Lou]

My connie is on Hi-Fi lite and Low cal balancer. He gets 10lb soaked hay at night and is out on decent grazing for 8 hours a day. His weight is just about perfect but we will start restricting his grazing soon or he will pile on the pounds once the grass starts coming through.

We don't at the moment other than hay. We have 4 in a paddock with very little grass so they have hay although no longer ad lib as the grass is starting to come through, and 3 on ad lib hay as even less grass and an in foal mare. We would have fed forage based feeds if they had needed more and haven't done vits etc because the hay is really good quality. All are looking really well as we come into spring.

 

[Walrus]

6kgs hay, handful Hifi Lite and Spillers Lite Balancer plus restricted grazing (4-7 hours per day).

Woops - forgot to say 13.2hh fatty Fell.

 

[Rosehip]

Mels has half a scoop of Pegasus Chaff, 3quarters of a yogurt pot of fast fibre and her vits&mins, glucosamine and Mobile Mover.
Seri (who is 11 weeks off foaling) has a handful of Pegasus chaff, quarter of a yogurt pot of fast fibre and 250g TopSpec stud balancer. She also has a half ration of vit&mins as she only has half rations of stud balancer. They both have a net of haylage at night, about 5lbs each, so 10lbs split between 4 nets so stop squabbling - they live out on ok grazing, having been restricted all winter they are now on the full field untill fencing can be put up - farm owner has a sudden allergy to elec fencing and posts, meaning that she wont allow it on the fields...great!

He's having haylage, and happy hoof and a balancer...

 

[RDO]

My exmoor is getting 6 lbs of hay at night and a couple of carrots then decent grazing during the day nothing fancy.

 

[mcnaughty]

Rising 3yo Welsh A Gelding.

Very small handful of safe and sound and 1 cup of Bluechip lamilight at night - no breakfast. In and out 12 hours roughly each day on good grazing. No work. 1 slice of hay - sorry no weighing done here!

 

[Brambridge04]

5 year old NF mare, handful grassnuts, and couple handfuls alfa a chaff, odd carrot/apple/polo as a treat. Looks well on it.

 

[appylass]

6 year old highland, unmolassed chaff, bit of Fast Fibre to dampen, multi vit/min and hay. Nothing fancy. He does have a carrot occasionally! He wouldn't have anything other than hay but he shares with a mare who needs feeding so it is really to keep him out of her space while she eats. He's looking good on it.
