Re: [RC] Se/tying up - terre

Does anyone know if "pellets" contain significant amounts of carbohydrates?

Hi Terre! Thanks for answering. Skook doesn't get any grain, for exactly
that reason. She gets beet pulp and alfalfa cubes, with supplements, and
about a lb. of horse pellets per day. I didn't cut her back but I asked the
vet about it and he felt that there wasn't much there for carbs. Thanks for
the heads-up on the typo. Can I correct that with Ridecamp? -F.
