Really need some advice as to feeding for my 8 month old foal. He had to be fostered shortly after birth and i am due to get him back tomorrow. He is a little on the lean side, quite tall, 3/4 tb. I have been reading up on feeding young horses and there is so much advice etc i am getting confused with it all. I intend giving him ad lib hay but not sure what he needs otherwise. Do young horses need to be fed extra vitamins etc I waitnt to keep it as simple as possible and thought about alpha a and a supplement such as sure limb or a balancer perhaps? However, some people advise against alpha a due to protein content (?) Not sure what to do as want to get it right but seem to be getting more and more confused!! Any advice or input as to what others are doing would be gratefully received.
