Need advise on help gaining weight on my horse?!?!?!?!?!?
After reading this I feel the need to share something because I spent endless years jumping from diet to diet without getting any real results until I saw Pams magic plan (google it)Without doubt its the most weight loss that I have ever had and I have kept it off to this day.

These are fine, but they include ingredients that are really not needed, and there are better and possibly cheaper ways to approach thisAssuming that she is not carrying a parasite overload, suffering from dental issues, or medical issues such as Cushing's, maldigestion, or malabsorption, then I'd be curious as to what you are feeding her now? Older horses need easily digested, low starch feeds with a low glycemic index, and more energy from fats than from sugarsCereal grains are harder to digest and high in soluble starches (sugars), and should not be fed Many people I know who have hard keeper OTTBs maintain them on Purina Equine Senior FeedIt is well digested and well utilized fiber feed with a low glycemic index that provides complete balanced nutrition My own 1000 lb 15.3 hh Arab gelding hard keeper in his 20s who was kept out on pasture with a run in shelter and never blanketed was maintained in great condition on 5 to 6 lbs daily of Purina Senior pelleted feed split into two or three feedings, and 24/7 access to good quality home grown grass hay along with his pasture for yearsI fed him as much hay on rubber mats in the shelter as he would clean up every 24 hours and over winter I added stabilized mineral balanced rice bran to the feed for added fat caloriesAn average 1000 lb horse can be fed up to 2 lbs of rice bran for an additional 2400 safe caloriesYou have to be sure that it is stabilized to prolong shelf life and calcium fortified to balance the calcium/phosphorus ratio correctlyAny fat supplement will provide the safe calories needed to put on weightOils are pure fats, and corn oil is highly palatable to horsesIt can be added to feed, and an average 1000 lb horse can metabolize fats from up to two cups a day for a total of 2000 added caloriesIt takes time for the body to adapt to metabolizing more fats, so you should start with a quarter cup and gradually increase the amount fed over several weeks.
