Re: Subject: Re: [RC] nutrena compete - Marirose SixKaren said: I never did find out what percentage of molasses that Nutrena Complete has in it. > I've had friends who thought they had overly difficult to control or hot-wired horses when all it was is they were feeding something pre-ride like Complete Advantage that has 20% molasses. Some people mistakingly believe that since it is a complete feed and has beet pulp in it that it is okay to feed in large quantities.> Very good point, Karen. Definately something to think about. I don't know about Nutrena Compete, but their Legacy doesn't seem to have too much molasses, it's based more with corn oil. The Nutrena guy I had talked to when I was considered the feed said there's only enough molasses to act as a preservative. I don't know the percentage though. I do know that I've not experienced the 'hot' horse. Even the tough keepers that get a lot of it aren't any tougher to ride. I've been feeding Legacy for years. ((No, I don't sell it, I just like the feed.)) It has worked well for a variety of horses/mules including pleasure horses that just do an occasional trail ride.
