Re: [RC] senior feed - Nancy SturmSusan, I'd look at the alfalfa. I haven't fed it to horses since my old Thoroughbred days, but it has the reputation for making hroses hot. Hunter, the energizer bunny, needs beet plup to maintain weight and I have added other stuff, including senior feed. He east better if I use LMF Showtime, so the senior feed is out for now. I don't really see that any of it makes him sillier, he's inclined to be anxious and reactive and he "worries" his weight off. I'd be glad to switch metabolisms with him. He also has grass hay and pasture turn out. Tim Hunter, cowboy and endurance rider, told me once that it's almost easier to have a horse that needs additional nutrition than it is to manage an easy keeper. I have come to think he's right. The Standardbred and both Icelandics are air ferns and their intake has to be monitored as closely as that of the lithe Hunter.
