Episode Details

On this episode, Dr. Cubitt and Katy chat about hay alternative options for horses that travel for shows, if your winter supply is running out or to proactively prepare yourself if you ever experience a natural disaster. They also discuss how to safely transition your horse when introducing new feeds, different types of hay or different hay forms (long stem vs. cube vs. pellet, etc.) to minimize the risk of colic and how to improve your horse’s diet when the only hay you have available is lower quality hay.
