My gelding has recently started blowing through salt blocks! I moved him to a new barn in August, he is getting superior care. He does spend a bit more time in his stall when it is very rainy or

Hi Amanda I did soak my 9% ESC hay all last winter in well below zero weather and 40 mph winds. 9% can be too high for may horses. Used an igloo cooler on wheels. Once I had the set up I just got

Caryn, PPID is a progressive condition. We are in the seasonal risenow. His ACTH could still be climbing or you never reached the correctamount of pergolide to control his ACTH value. There is

HI! I have a cushings, previous founder, IR horse who had a major founder episode on August 27, he has been on Pergolide (1 tablet) once a day for two months and has been great and had great results

Hi Kathleen >Hays that test with unusually high protein - in the mid to upper teens for crude protein - might be worth testing for nitrates if the hay is known to be fertilized and nitrate

I am wondering what others do for their hay feeding in cold weather. Currently I am soaking my hay, 2 horses, 18lbs each, feeding them about 6 different portions throughout the day. I live in Northern

Do you have any idea about the shelf life of Stabul 1??? If I ordered 10 bags, it would be lasting me for 3-4 months and I'm worried that it might get bugs in it by then... Guess I should call them
