Just wanted to share a project horse. She got dumped in my lap on saturday. She's been through some rough times and I think within a few months she will look like a million bucks. She was so hungry the first day I brought her home. Any feeding suggestions?

Before you post a message simply check the box beside "Attach a file after posting". It will let you upload the picture and once it is accepted you can return to the thread and see your photo:) However it must be in .jpg form. If it is .jpeg it will only show it as a download.

spitzh - 2014-12-10 9:11 AM Thank you. How do you upload photos in the body of the message?
I think you can just copy and paste the photo... let me try one to see....... Yep, I just copied the image and pasted.. This is my 30+ year old mare that I had let a friend use for her small grandchild just to ride/walk around. The mare became poor, eventhough was being fed. When I got her home and was with her every day and paying attention to her eating habits I realized... she couldn't eat hay. The top picture was taken in Oct. 2013, bottom picture May 2014. Granted your situaton is different, but I wanted to tell you what I used to put weight on this mare. Of course forage was an issue so I spent lots on $ on Chaffhaye for her. She needed it... she got it. I also feed ADM feed and put her back on ADM SeniorGlo and top dressed ADM HealthyGlo nuggets. She's still with us today and although I don't have a current picture, she looks good for 30+ years of age. Good luck with your project horse. Glad she found you.

Thanks everyone. Ive owned for 1 week now and I can see her attitude change and her coat is starting to look nicer. I have a mini donkey with her and they love each other, I think the companionship is helping alot.
