Re: [RC] Feedin' horses - Don Huston

Hello Bruce,
Thanks for the link to this very interesting article. When I started riding endurance in 1988 the cowboys around here said "feed'um 4-5 pounds of rolled corn with 15 pounds of alfalfa". According to this article those cowboys knew how to feed a hard working horse but I quit feeding corn after several years because of the many articles about it not being very good for endurance horses. What is your opinion on feeding rolled corn to endurance horses? Chime in the rest of you "feed freaks". :-)

Don't remember if I posted this before, but it is interesting reading for those of you who are "feed freaks," like I am. Although nearly a century old, it holds wisdom that is still useful today in the care and feeding of our horses. Enjoy. Dr Q
