Mrs. BigWig Posts: 1868 Location: chasing kids and animals	like a regular feed scoope? I feed 2x a day. So I was feeding a 1/4 scoope at both feedings. So wasn't sure they were getting what they needed or not. They also have hay available 24/7.

I also feed a vitamin/mineral with the hay pellets and the equine nutritionist I work with said it's a good program. My broodmares are getting extra feed but that is them.

Mrs. BigWig Posts: 1868 Location: chasing kids and animals	Thank you soooo much... you have been very helpfull. Do you see them thriving more off the pellets than the cubes?

I've never fed cubes, so I can't answer that honestly. But, mine are all dappled on the diet I have them on and in very good health.

My horses get that in the morning and their grain at night What grain do you feed along with the alfalfa pellets ? I'm starting to feed alfalfa pellets & beet pulp mixed & am thinking about going grain less .

Elite Veteran Posts: 1165 Location: California	How much of the Augment do you feed? I found the Adeptus website and a place to order but it doesn't say how much to feed or how long each size lasts 1 horse....

Member Posts: 42 Location: SE Oklahoma	I feed a full scoop (your regular plastic scoop) along with Chaffhaye for my hard keeper for lunch. He gets feed for breakfast and dinner. My other horses get 1/2 to 1/4 scoop for lunch with chaffhaye. I don't feed the cubes because we've had horses choke, so I can't compare - but i'm perfectly happy with pellets. They don't get "hot", but it keeps their gut going throughout the day.
