Join Be Herd, LLC and 17 Hand Equine Nutrition for our fall equine nutrition series, Winter Prep!
September 23rd @ 6:00 PM: Hunker Down With Your Hay
How to hunker down for the winter with less than ideal hay without sacrificing your horse’s health. Join us as we discuss how to make the most of the hay you have for the winter. Due to the drought, many horse owners are making do with the hay they were able to buy at the price they could afford, but will that hay be able to sustain the health of your horse?
We will talk through hay management strategies, how to support diets despite poor hay, understanding the important parts of a hay analysis, and considerations for senior horses. You will take home useful knowledge applicable to any horse!
October 21 @ 6:00 PM: Caring for Senior Horses
Nutrition strategies for horses who deserve the very best retirement! They carried us in their younger years and now deserve the best care possible in their golden years. We'll discuss how to replace hay correctly for those toothless wonders, how to feed senior horses with metabolic concerns, talk through how aging and inflammation affect our nutrition strategies, and considerations for the harshest season for our oldies.
