Help,
I am suffering from feed information overload..
This is my first horse and my first winter and I need to know what to feed. He is 15.1hh PBA. He has no trouble keeping weight on, in fact quite the opposite. At the moment he is out at grass full time and as he is being worked although lightly its about 4 times a week. I feed him high fibre/low energy cubes plus carrots & apples. He will be going on to Haylidge in the winter which contains molasses. I do not want to over complicate his diet with unecessary supplements, basically I would like to keep it high fibre/low heat but I am worried about vitimins etc., what is the opinion on feed balancers or how else should I change his diet for winter?
Thanks for any help.
Harriet
