[QUOTE="CattleAnnie, post: 33769, member: 220"] A different point of view. Up here it's gotten so cold that I've actually been unable to get a reading on my thermometer (the mercury was balled up and the lowest temperature reading is minus sixty celcius - no idea where that puts the farenheit, but it's darn cold irregardless). Our horses get fed strictly hay. It's mostly alfalfa with the odd bit of grass in it, and all the horses come through the winter fat and sassy. The only horses that get grain in the winter are the draft team, as they need the extra energy due to the work load they have. This includes weanlings, bred mares, saddle horses and the kids' old timers. There's nothing wrong with supplementing them if they are doing poorly or if you like to treat them, but it's really not necessary if they have high quality hay. [/QUOTE]
