[QUOTE="rk, post: 228280, member: 2993"] If your post is directed at me, I would suggest you re-read my post - if not, please go confuse someone else. As far as younger horses needing 'proper nutrition', I'm thinking someone with a degree and too much time on his/her hands has complicated things way beyond belief! We've raised too many foals on nothing but good quality hay, grass, and a few oats (be they rolled or whole) or rolled wheat and every one of them went on to live a long, trouble-free, healthy, and productive life for me to believe otherwise. All one needs is an understanding of what a growing animal needs - not fancy, expensive feeds.[/quote Wasn't directed at anyone, hope you haven't taken offense. Younger horses can do okay on oats, but if they are going to be used hard, there are diets that fulfill the requirements much better than oats. I doubt any nutritionist will tell you differently. I also do not judge folks as to whether they have a degree or not.....I won't apologize for mine. I worked hard for it and use the knowledge each day. I don't know why you feel you can judge my time...but in the end, I don't really care. [/QUOTE]
