[RC] Soy as a source of protein? - Jerry & Susan MilamRidecamp Nutrition Gurus: I switched my horses over to a higher fat ration this winter using beetpulp as my base for it all and added Black oil sunflower seeds, and Flax but still had a bit of the sweet feed in it or a peletized grain feed for the protein content. I've read somewhere they have found soy to be agood protein source for horse and it also has a calming effect besides. Anyone out there care to comment on the Soy thing and can we get into quantities here or ratio/percentages and such to ensure a balanced diet? Of course, I add the cosequin and the multi viatamin and extra vit E to it all. TIA, In His Hands, Susan, Fly Bye & Dandy "All you have to decide is what to do with the time you are given."
