Laney, your response about your horse not eating his BP mash at the ride has 
me intrigued.  Any theories as to why?  Also, any other horses out there who 
do this?  I will be bringing hay, BP mash, apples and carrots, but I would 
be very worried if he refused to eat his BP.  Again, thanks in advance.
