I've had Willow less than two years. She is a very easy keeper. I am still learning how to manage her best. I've had her on full board for all except the first four months. Her feet were good when I g

Actually I have dropped her to 3 flakes per day of timothy and she has been entirely prevented from going on grass for two weeks. I may not have put that into the history.... I'm adjusting supplements

Maybe I should move her sooner? Her planned stall not available but a small one is available now.

I will be moving my mare on Sept 26. Any recommendations on how to reduce her stress?

My Canadian also eats like this. When I had her on self board, I doubled one inch hay nets - she could still empty them in 1-1.5 hours. I recently bought a hay ball which holds about 5-6 pounds. It sl

I don't recall the brand. Where I bought it had the original ball from Germany and a knock-off that was $20 less. They looked the same and held about the same about of hay so I went with the knock-off

Hello, Feeding: I have Willow at her new barn. She is having about 19-20 pounds of tested hay. (3.5 flakes, assuming average weight of 5.5). 3 flakes straight and one half in a hay ball. I've asked fo

I'm pretty far away. I can ask that she just be given half a flake (2-3 lbs) and no beet pulp or supps and that she is fed promptly at 7. Would that help?

Where are you buying the Ontario Dehy product in BC and... is it the one called "balance"? Thanks!!

I admit I am a bit confused. She will be fed at 7:00 in the morning. Her last feed the night before is at 9:00 PM. (She is fed at 7 AM, 2:30 PM and 9 PM every day.) The vet appointment is at 10 AM, 3

Ok, I am beginning to understand. The appointment today was to check her feet with the possibility of an IR test. I will ask that we do not do the IR test today. She is on full board some distance fro

Hello, Will saw vet for second time on Oct 4 and vet says laminitic episode has passed. Took x-rays, these are posted in her album. We see a slight rotation. Vet took blood tests; results are in the O
