[RC] eating electrolytes - RhndLevI just recently starting using Perform N Win electrolytes. Today, after a fairly short ride (although we were working in plowed fields some of the time), I was messing around with my new guy and offered him some Perform N Win electrolytes in my hand. He licked them all up. I scooped up another palmful; he ate them all again. Another palmful; same deal. After three scoops from my hand, he nosed my hand out of the way and started eating them out of the bucket. This horse has free access to mineral salt and plain salt and this new Moorman's mineral block, but he was still just munching down on the Perform N Win. So, my question is, does he actually need these electrolytes if he's eating them? Or is it possible that he just likes the taste? Can I leave out "free choice" Perform N Win for him at the rides, or will he make himself sick?
