Re: [RC] Electrolytes - Beth Walker

So my next question :) is what do you use to judge what your particular horse needs?

Certainly, if your horse has had a problem with thumps, cramps, etc. that would be a signal that he needed more electrolytes. However, the whole idea is to avoid those problems, so what do you go by?

Dawn mentioned the difference in salt block consumption, and I can relate to that. My old horse, which I had for his entire 25 years, would eat salt blocks like candy. My new fellow has barely put a dent in his after a year.
