[RC] Hay--recommended daily allowances - Linda Dewees

Wow--thanks for your reply Susan!  I didn't put in those other items because I didn't know what the heck they were!  Here it is:
 
% acid detergent fiber     33.8
% neutral detergent fiber  64.2
NEL  .49 Mcal/lb
NEM  .51 Mcal/lb
NEG   .26 Mcal/lb
Horse DE   l99 Mcal/lb
 
What does it all mean??
I remember you saying something about this fiber stuff a long time ago.  I'll check the archieves.  Thankyou very much for sparking our interest in nutrition and helping us take better care of our horses!
 
And thankyou Jim Mitchell (I think it was) for recommending this hay grower on Ridecamp (last year sometime.)  They are located near Bakersfield, CA.
 
Linda
ps....thanks for reminding me to cover it  :-)  I need those kind of reminders.
