Re: [RC] Beet Pulp - Laney HumphreyBeet pulp is sold in 2 forms: shredded and pelleted. The shredded can actually be fed dry as long as the horse has access to a good source of water. Soaking it is safer. I just add a generous amount of water to Dino's brew and give it to him without pre-soaking it. However, if you have the pelleted form, never, never, never feed it without presoaking! I dealt with a horse that choked on dry pellets because the owner didn't know the pellets have to be presoaked. 2 hours might be enough to completely rehydrate pellets but I soak over night or all day. In hot weather I wouldn't use it after 12 hours of soaking just in case it has begun to ferment. btw, the pellets really expand a lot!!! The pelleted form is much more economical than the shredded, just a bit more work.Laney Linda Winkel wrote: So how much should I give AJ of the beet pulp. And how long do you soak it for the bag said 2 hours but I thought most people soaked it longer than that. I am going to add this in to his diet before I add anything else. I am going to switch to Perfect 12 instead of Perfect 10 since it has a little more fat. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
