Subject: Re: [RC] beet pulp
I have a mare who bolts her grain too, thats is so she can go around and
open everyone elses stall to eat theirs too.I used to put rocks in, but
stopped doing that , figured at 1 lb of grain , didn't matter how fast she ate
it. But. .one day after starting to feed beet pulp soaked, give her a
scoop maybe, she choked on it. Since then if I feed her beet pulp, I put large
rocks in it (like 6-8')long. it does slow her down. vet suggested it and other
trainers. Laurie and Rascal (the hairy beast)

Just as a side note....I know of a knowledgeable horse
person who puts a
handful of small stones into her horse's feed dish to
disncourage them from
wolfing down their feed. The horses take a little
more time to eat around
them. I wonder if this would be as safe with a
wet feed and if the horse
would also work it's way around the
stones?
