[RC] Rice Bran & Beet Pulp - LisaI have a 14 year old Thoroughbred mare who is a hard keeper. I've tried several 'diets' with her to both gain and maintain weight, with my favorite being a blend of rice bran and soaked beet pulp. She doesn't become hot and loves the flavor of this combination, plus it's nutritionally balanced when fed in proper amounts. However, I've heard rice bran can be bad for their feet -- Does anyone have any knowledge/comments on this? My horse has those typical soft Thoroughbred feet! At the most, I would feed 8 cups of rice bran/day. Appreciate any help, thanks!
