Re: [RC] beet pulp question for Dr Susan and/or Dr. Heidi - Laney HumphreyI wonder when that vet last took an equine nutrition course or read up on nutrition and electrolytes?! Maybe someone should invite him to observe at an endurance ride where sloppy wet beet pulp is hungrily being slung all over most trailers and grain is in short supply.Laney winsumjo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: My neighbor had the vet out yesterday for some shots. The subject of beet pulp came up and the vet told her not to feed more than 30% beet pulp to the grain ration or it will cause an electrolyte imbalance. I have never heard that before and as I feed more beet pulp than 30% of my grain ration I just want to know if there is any validity to this statement, Dr. Susan or Dr. Heidi?
