Re: [RC] [RC] senior feed - Carla Richardson

Could be the alfalfa hay, too.  My horses can get too hot if they're
on too much alfalfa, I like to feed either straight grass or a
grass/alfalfa mix with mostly grass.

That was exactly the reason for the senior feed - to
help put weight on!  She is only 6.  Well, I have
gradully cut down on both the beet pulp and senior
feed to the point where it will be elimintated for
now.  She does get 2 servings of alflfa a day (her
usual fare) and one serving of grass hay a day.  I
have just discovered my feed store carries Ultium by
Purina, and I will get some of that and in a couple of
weeks, will gradually add the beet pulp back in along
with a topping of Ultium.  I just want my controllable
horse back - I am NOT a dressage queen and DO NOT LIKE
"AIRS ABOVE THE GROUND"!!
