This is a great forage feeding tip shared from my fitter friend from up north

⚖️Weigh the forage rather than the horse! ⚖️

I’ve seen lots of disappointed horse owners recently that have booked me to reweigh their horses & are surprised that they are still fat. In all these cases it had been due to over feeding forage….Tips…..

1. Weigh your nets so you know how much you are feeding.

2. Look at the minimum amount that I suggest on your ration sheet - if you’re feeding double that amount then you need to reduce it if you want to see a difference.

3. Just because your livery bill includes your hay/haylage don’t feel you have to get your moneys worth, you are not doing your horse any favours.

4. Stop obsessing about what your horse weighs & focus on the weight you are feeding them… You will then visually see that they have lost weight, because their body condition score comes down or the girth goes up another hole.

5. A spring balance to weigh your net only costs a couple of pounds!

If you need to restrict calories because your horse is fat the minimum forage is 1.5% of the horses bodyweight per day eg. 500kg horse = 7.5kgs per day.

🌱Spring grass is around the corner, now is time to act!
