Veteran Posts: 119 Location: NeverLand	I have a just turned three year old that is fat and happy on pasture. But he doesn't have have that finish/nice coat look that all my others have had. I don't have access to quality alfalfa or any alfalfa except for cubes from tractor supply. I got a big protein/mineral tub but he along with the others horse could care less for it. They also have a big redmens salt rock. Some people have suggested calf mana for a good all around supplement/grain. His riding scheduled is basically nothing right now. So maybe that's why he isn't looking they way I thought. I don't know...

Elite Veteran Posts: 682 Location: Northwest	I pulled my horses off of everything three months ago and am just feeding grass hay, a handful of soaked alfalfa cubes and Thunder Mountain Minerals. My horses look AMAZING, incredibly shiny...even more than when they were on Platinum Performance a few years ago. I chose TMM because it is a very complete mineral supplement. Super pleased with it. I get asked a lot what I feed more horses.

Expert Posts: 1695 Location: Willows, CA	Three year olds have a lot going on. They are growing, and are going through a lot of mouth changes that make chewing properly painful. Your current diet would likely be short on protein if he is not eating the tub you provided. I would add the alfalfa cubes first, and see where he goes from there. Have his teeth checked if they have not been in the last six months. Edited by winwillows 2017-08-28 5:32 PM
