mineral balancing
skip gercke
I lost my mare in September but never got her diet balanced after starting on the emergency diet. I am still feeding the same hay to my other horses and would like to find out the proper balancing now. Can anyone guide me to how to do this?

What I did was have my hay analyzed, then contacted Uckele for the balancing. They will ask you for some info on your horses, then put together what minerals you need to balance it. You can either buy the minerals recommended or they will put together a custom mix.

Thank you. So do I just contact one of these people and ask if they can do it? I did just sign up for the NRC course this winter so that will help hopefully. Thanks for sending all of this. I appreciate it.

Oh good, Nancy. Could you take a look at my hay and do the balancing for me? That would be great, if so.

She did email back and tell me that she could do it as I am signed up for the course so that should work. I appreciate your letting me know.
