Properly transitioning an OTTB from racing to a new discipline or leisure riding involves understanding and addressing their specific needs in feeding, health management, and behaviour.

At certain times of the year or for metabolic reasons, sometimes it's necessary to feed only hay diets to our horses. After all, hay is just dried grass.

How can we ensure our horses are getting their nutritional needs met when they have no access to grass, and hay is getting even harder to source?

Magnesium can vary in colour from off-white to light brown/pink and has no association with quality.  

 As temperatures drop and pasture availability changes, it’s essential to adjust your horse's feeding routine to ensure they receive all the necessary nutrients to stay healthy and thrive.
