A changing workload or new forage supply is a good reason to review the whole ration with a qualified professional.

Bring feed labels, measured amounts, and any available forage analysis to your nutrition appointment.

Start with a clear picture of your horse’s usual routine. A short, dated record of feeding, turnout, exercise, and appointments makes it easier to share useful observations with the people involved in your horse’s care.

Every horse has an individual history. Use your notes to prepare questions for your veterinarian or another qualified equine professional, and keep their recommendations with your horse’s care records.
