Re: [RC] Midwest horse feeding and riding buddies - Sisu West Ranch
"...digesting the alfalfa is what keeps them warm during the winter,
and they won't be able to withstand the elements as well if they are being
fed grass hay and grain...."
If horses have enough hay, of any variety, they
will do fine out in MT or WI winters. I have used everything from ~50%
Alfalfa to 100% grass to winter horses. I also used 80% clover hay one
year when I was in WI.
The key is to feed them enough.
