Optimize Your Horse's Diet with these Tips
Follow sound management practices along with optimal preventive veterinary medicine. These recommendations are intended as a guide. They should be adjusted to variables of management, environment, and individual needs. If necessary, consult your Purina Dealer or Equine Specialist:
- Analyze your hay and balance the ration accordingly
- Feed clean and dust free hay in sufficient amount daily
- Feeding poor quality hay or feeding inadequate amounts could cause colic and other digestive upsets
- Offer source of salt (NaCl) daily as well as plenty of fresh and clean water at all times
- Make any feed change gradually over a 7 to 10 day period
- Daily ration should be divided into 2 and preferably 3 separate feedings or more
- Use a scale to weigh your feed, so you know exactly how much your horse is being fed. Do not feed by volume.
