 | Equine Nutrition an Overview of Feeding Horses
Equine nutrition can be a complicated subject of amounts, percentages, ratios, guesses, and unknowns. However, the results of good nutrition are easily seen: a healthy, energetic animal in good condition with a glossy coat. As the "Overview" article explains, the horse owner is able to achieve this result, not by memorizing long nutrition tables or feeding expensive supplements, but by developing a few skills and understanding basic principles of horse nutrition. Below are topics that greatly expand on the Overview article but it should be read and understood first. | 75 | 585 | May 29, 08 |
