[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 1600610, member: 6897"] I notice many companies now making what they call "Low Starch" or "reduced Starch" feeds for horses. These will usually have little or almost no grain in them and will use soybean hulls as the primary ingredient. Hulls are very digestible, have about 85% of the energy of corn and an al most no starches. Nutrena makes one called "Safechoice" I believe. All the major companies have one, I just can't think of them names at this time. Horses do utilize beet pulp very well and it is an excellent filler, high in fiber with a moderate level of energy but very safe for horses. I understand some horse owners actually cook it or at least soak it before feeding. Cost might make it infeasible. [/QUOTE]
