33 year old Arab mare with 7 teeth left. Very picky! She was on Ultium for awhile, but lost some weight last fall/winter on it and isn’t keeping it on now.
We changed her to TC Senior Gold but shipping has been too unreliable the last two orders. About two months ago, she stopped eating it as well and I had to start adding the Ultium back in. Now she’s back on Ultium only.
I started giving her soaked beet pulp in one tub and soaked alfalfa cubes in another during the day when she was out in the pasture by herself in the winter and she gained weight. Now that it’s summer it’s too hot to leave it out without spoiling and she’s lost a little.
She’s currently eating 3.5 lbs Ultium and two cups of rice bran twice a day. I’m just not sure what to do. When I’m there around lunch I give her some soaked beet pulp but I’m not there every day.
She’s not wild about textured feeds which adds to the issue. We have Triple Crown, ProElite, Legends, Purina, and if I drive further, Seminole, Buckeye and Tribute.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Btw, she doesn’t belong to me. I feed at the barn she’s at, talk to her owner regularly, but she can’t come out. No one is at the barn except for twice a day feeding unless myself or the one other boarder is there for their own horse.
Not the best picture, but it’s current. I stink at bcs but you can see ribs.
