Hello
So tonight I went down to see to new horse and as a treat brought him some whole supermarket oats that I had soaked in a bit of hot water. I only fed him maybe 1/4 cup maybe less. He ate some that were still very hot and it kind of put him off, so I didn’t see him eat anymore when I was down the yard. I’m at home now and worrying that I shouldn’t have given them to him.
I did read up and make sure it wasn’t toxic to them and lots of people feed porridge oats. They were Quaker Whole Rolled jumbo oats. Once i had added the water they were the consistency of a thick porridge/mash and I put them in his feed bowl with lots of water and a bit of his previous food. I’m now worried that it’s going to cause colic or upset is tummy
Or cause lami? Can someone please tell me their opinion on this? Do you ever feed supermarket oats as a treat? Hes well settled in and has been here almost a month now. Thanks x
