 I feed Total Equine currently and have been feeding it for a little over 5 years.  I used it with my horse that was on the verge of being insulin resistant and he leveled out and had great success.  I now have a horse who was on Purina Impact 12% sweet feed when I got him, due to us living in a very humid climate and it not keeping well, I switched him to Total Equine.  He has done fine on it, but he's a super laid back horse, and I'm thinking he needs a little hotter feed to help him have more energy.  Any recommendations for good feed that is still highly digestible, but will give him a little boost.  He currently gets grass hay and some alfalfa.  I may increase his alfalfa too.  Thanks!

I think I would just try to increase the alfalfa first. I hate so many of those processed grains. I do feed Ultium Growth to my babies and Active Senior to my old ones, but the rest just get soaked alfalfa/beet pellets instead of any grains. They do great on it. More energy than they need and they are also on free choice grass hay when in the corral.
