What I Feed My Horses and Why | Feeding Guide | Ad

I think this is such great information and we need to be sharing this more natural way of feeding, it’s made a huge change to my tb mare and is much more cost effective too🙌

Do you feed a balancer with feeds?

This is so helpful! Are there any balancers you would recommend?

Super helpful thank you ❤

Can micronised linseed be fed to a 2 year old that is under weight?

I swear by Speedi-beet. I've fed all my horses on it in varying degrees. I have a Clydesdale with CPL who can't have alfalfa but needs good nutritional support, a Welsh x who has it as a "carrier" along with a grass chaff for his vitamins, and a 3yr old native type who is potentially in foal, now also on it. Love the stuff!

Great video, would you still feed linseed even if you are feeding fibre beet as opposed to speedi beet? :)

Great video, very helpful. My understanding with linseed is that once the shell is cracked it begins to turn rancid as it is unstable. I ground the linseed, bag and freeze it. There has been significant research on GM foods on animals and the destruction of gut bacteria and links to cancer.

Very interesting! Wish we had tthis in the US! Also Blondie is very entertaining! 😂❤❤❤

We love Fiberbeet for all our horses (2 poor doers, 1 laminitic welshie). We are looking at ways to help our "awkward" TB's diet as he arrived a real wreak. He has gained some good weight but we are looking at how to support him over winter as we aim to bring him into work. We are facing some issues first but Fiberbeet has been a god send

Believe it or not they are actually getting a percentage, low yes, but still getting bugs in their diet. These bugs live in various forms on the forage they eat. If your horse is not on pasture they miss these very important type of nutrients. Bugs can actually be considered as a superfood. Amino acids, micronutrients, proteins etc.

Fibre beet is a miracle feed ! I have a 30 yr old shetland who is pretty much just gums now and can no longer eat any thing other than mash.British horse feeds have been amazing with advice for him. He now lives solely on bucket feeds of mostly fibre beet and is thriving. Couldn't be without it! Thank you for another great video 🦄

Great info about the fibrebeet. I've been looking to change my aging gelding's diet as he is beginning to find chewing & digesting hay more difficult.

He currently gets copra meal with alfalfa (we call it Lucerne here in Australia) but I'd really like him to get more fibre.

I'd be interested to know your thoughts on cold pressed linseed oil.

Love Love LOVED your video. Thank you!!

❤❤❤

Do you still use Equigel?

Do you still use Equigel?

Outstanding video! Blondie is a different horse. I was very happy to see her grooming YOU! I never thought she would become the horse she is today. Well done!

Very interesting, thank you for posting this

is linseed oil okay to use? i cant find any other linseed feeds in my country

When I first got my TB I listened to others and went with a premixed feed and then loads of chaff…. With years of research and altering his feeds…. He and my laminitis pony get different amounts of Speedibeet and Small amounts to copra along with their vitamins and any supplements and loads of hay and grass and salt! My horses are super shiny, happy and the perfect weight! I like knowing that my horses are eating simple and inexpensive feeds that I know the ingredients and can alter as needed for each horse!

Very good video!

Brilliant Miri. I was always put off speedy beet as it has some sugar in. For fatty welshies. Horses are so similar to us in so many ways. With gut microbiome. The herbs they can have. I use dengie healthy hooves chaff. And forage plus. Thats it. I did try micronised linseed. But sent my welshie a bit bonkers. Totally agree with you. So much of our food is sprayed with toxic glyphosate. And horses too. Vile toxic muck.🙈 i like natural feeding. Natural living out for horses. The balancers, nuts full of fillers and all sorts of unsuitable food chemicals for horses. It affects thier health and behaviour so much. Healthy gut healthy body. I have watched you changing your feed regime over the years. I like this one best. Natural. Great its uk based. Awsome. Helping our planet too. Buy local. When my gut flora was destroyed by antibiotics. My whole body was sick. Those gut bugs are crucial to health. I now make eat drink fermented foods and drinks. And changed diet. Horses are no different. Stuffing them full of toxic chemicals is asking for trouble. Horses are meant to eat grass. Fibre. Blondie is looking fantastic Miri. Congratulations on being sponsered by this British food company...loved this video. You are one amazing horsey lady.❤❤❤🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎xxxx

Another great video.

EXCELLENT 👍

Thank you Miri for taking the time to explain not only the horses digestive system but also what can occur if feeding the incorrect feed to them.
I have already contacted British Horse Feeds and Kirsten has replied with her recommendations for LuLu, my five year old rescue horse, and Oscar, my four year old rescue companion pony. I am just finishing off the feed I have left and then it is going to be Fibre Beet all the way. Thanks 👍
