it's more imprtant to leave things alone - too many changes already this
year for this mare, & the all-natural feed I'm using is basically just
that - oats/beet pulp with some probiotics & vitamins thrown in.


FWIW, an article in the Horse Journal last June, extolling the benefits of
beet pulp and saying that everybody else should follow the lead of endurance
riders, said that oats are the perfect complement to beetpulp.
