Behaviour
can be manipulated nutritionally; horses can be hyped up, or
slowed down by regulating the input of energy sources and
energy-regulating supplements......................
Lethargy/Lack of Stamina
If
condition good, add mineral/vitamin
supplement to feed - e.g. Pegavite™, Pegasus Premium C.L.O.,
Equi-Builda™ for a few days before work.
If condition is poor, feed (enough) good quality (soya or
linseed rich) conditioning mix or nuts. Increase training to
get horse fitter.
Feed Competition or Racehorse Mix/Nuts/Oats
Too Fizzy
Reduce feed, especially high starch/sugar feeds.
Reduce/eliminate mineral/vitamin supplement.
Change to higher oil/higher fibre/oat-free feeds.
Try probiotic/yeast.
Try magnesium-rich supplement - (n.b. most Horseheath products are
well supplemented with magnesium).
Feed Non-Heating Mix/Economy Mix/AntiLam™, Body-Builda™, Working
Horse Mix (last two may be too much
for a pony)
