Hi all - we have just taken on a TB who has been off the track for about 6 months - and is a little on the skinny side.
I dont think he has been fed that well and i need to get some meat on his bones.
What kind of things can you use? I have been told that corn oil is a good thing and a couple of teaspoons per day will add calories and help him to get some weight on.
Any other help is appreciated - he will be doing a little bit of work - none for the time being until he gets built up again - maybe a few walks in hand - but no riding for the time being - and at the moment he is just on grass as we only collected him earlier today.
Thank you.
