Nag Bag and a skinny horseWhat can I do?

I recently purchased a Nag Bag (the netted cover that goes over your round bale to keep horses from making a mess)I have 4 horses of which 3 of them could lose some weight and then I have a skinny TB mare that we are trying to put weight onThe horses make a huge mess which is why I bought a bag and I am already getting an extra 2-3 days out of a round baleI am a bit worried about my skinny mare that she will not be gaining weight as quickly as she was beforeShe is not unhealthyShe has a nice bright, glowing coat and is quite energeticI am feeding her about 2 pounds of alfalfa-timothy cubes twice a day along with her normal grainShould I be increasing the amount of cubes? Should I be worried about her?

Answer:

Horses are grazers, their digestion is very quick and their diet should consist of small regular mealsMake sure she has access to all the hay she can eatAlso if you want to feed her additional calories you could try feeding her a high energy feed such as high energy fibres, high fat feeds, or grain based feedsAdding a cup of high fat oil to her feeds is an easy way to help her gain weight as it doesn't include her eating more meals, its just mixed with her regular feedHope this helped, Yas x
I would stay away from things that go boom they tend to end badlyWhy not rig a concealed string to some bushes, which you can surreptitiously pull and cause bushes to move (probably best if you are pretending to have dozed off by this point)Then when your cousins go to investigate some (mousetrap) spring loaded thing jumps out at them Or maybe no jumping thing, just strings runing to differnet bushes to appear like you are surroundedOR a mini cassette player, hidden in the bushes, that runs blank for 30 min or so - and then starts playing some creepy monster / animal / grunting / demonic type soundsgood luck EDIT: another thing is a creepy dimestore mask hidden in the bushes, so when they look to investigate the string induced rustling - old creepy is peering ouot of the gloom at themI once waited outside my lil' brother's window for half and hour wearing one of these cheap masks, didn't make a sound - finally he felt like someone was watching him, turned around and saw me a practically ruined his shorts! It was a cheap cheesy mask too, but that split second is all it takes!
Quietly unzip the door to their tent while they are sleeping, shine a big flashlight directly into their faces and yell, TRAIN.!!! My uncle did that to my cousin and me when we were camping once and I thought I was going to have a heart attack!!! It was hilarious after the initial shock tho:)
ahhhh right up my alley.the practical joke :).Scare.ahh yes.the love a good scream!3am.ok1) Dress yourself and whomever is all black.even down to a black stocking type mask .even a mask that looks like MIKE MYERS from Halloween of Friday the 13th!!! Scream the bloodiest curdling scream you can muster up.and watch the hair stand on end 2) You can.Sneak over to the tent where your cousins are sleeping and tie them up with duck tape(legs) You should be able to accomplish this fairly easily!! 3) you can get a couple of your friends to come at 3am and do the same Halloween fright :) good luck
You are bad! I am glad you aren't my cousinIf they wanted to go home after two hours when you went camping before, what do you think scaring them will do? They'll stay awake all night, maybe more than one night because of your prankThen they won't have any fun at all, and will never want to camp again.
