Smart Omega 3 / seasonal diet changes

[HappyHorsey]

As the seasons change, one of our horses tends to have loose manure and she starts eating dirt.

She only gets 1 or 2 hours of grass per day in the summer (otherwise on drylot with hay), but I was wondering if her diet misses even that amount of grass in the fall.

I saw that SmartPak’s Smart Omega 3 provides omega-3s, probiotics, and enzymes like fresh grass. Has anybody tried this supplement with good results?

My horse wouldn’t eat it. She was pretty picky about it even when it was mixed with soaked alfalfa cubes.

Thanks! That’s what I was afraid of - that it wasn’t very palatable. I’m not sure if my horse would eat it.

Try Omega HorseShine; Smartpack carries it. It’s a great, flax-based product and I’ve never had palatability issues with my mare.

You could just buy flax seed and grind in the coffee grinder.
