Did you know...?
Did you know that a horse's stomach is extremely small? This means that horses are more suited to being fed in small amounts over long periods of time. This is why horses often graze to acquire food. |
| e-Tip of the Week Tips on horse feeding:
1. Feed horses as much quality forage as they can eat while maintaining a healthy weight.
2. Make sure there are at least 3 inches of grass in pastures to prevent sand colic, decrease parasite exposure, and reduce the chance of ingesting toxic plants.
3. Provide fresh, clean water at a cool but not cold, or lukewarm temperature to ensure adequate hydration and to reduce the chances of compaction colic. |
