[RC] [RC] Tying Up- Help Needed - Erica R. DeVoti

I would start w/ removing all grain (Strategy) and alfalfa and see if that helps.  From what I understand the protein and carbs can really build up in their system.  I would think you could still feed beet pulp--maybe just sprinkle a little grain on top for palatability.  Many high mileage endurance horses don't get as much food as your gelding is getting --many  would become way-"weigh" too fat ! :^)
