[RC] What's in YOUR mash?? - Lucie HessI feel like I'm making a quote from the credit card TV commercial.. "what's in YOUR wallet?" But I do want to know what folks are putting in their mashes. I know my preride mash is different than my vet check mash.. anyone else do different concoctions? Here's what I feed pre ride, the night before and a lesser amount before the ride. Beet Pulp, Purenia Strategy or Endurance 101 (a buckeye product), electrolytes.. (P&W) some probi, and some psyllium. I want to make that poop slippery, to prevent any kind of hard manure, as I've had minor colics due to minor impactions.. (like the horse says.. hey it HURTS when I poop... so I won't) During the ride, I'll use beet pulp, strategy, chopped dehydrated alfalfa (God -- I love this stuff), electrolytes, and if I think the horse is gonna be picky a handful or 2 of sweet feed. (at my barn.. sweet feed is seen as horse candy). <and the beet pulp has been soaked to within an inch of it's life and extra water added to the whole mess> (Literally it's a mess, especially when the horse reaches over your head all the while happily slobbering this concoction on your head and hair!) So what does everyone else use?? Columbia, Missouri NATRC Region 6 AERC # 65 AERC Central Region OCER member __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
