Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | That's what you got out of my posts? I'm a big meany because you posted something stupid and I pointed out the error in your logic? I was actually trying to be nice about it until you kept being purposely obtuse. Or maybe ignorant WAS the wrong word...  |

Location: West Texas | Her logic wasn't stupid. It's more a figure of speech and a sound feeding principle, based on what it really means. Sandok does try to educate herself on feeds and feeding. Honestly, you weren't very kind at all. I am not looking for an argument, but I'll take up for her, no doubt. |

Well of course you are, she's your customer. There was absolutely no need for her to get butthurt over what I initially said, then she totally took my words the wrong way and really got upset. Not knowing about something makes you ignorant on that subject. Learning something new is educating yourself. Refusing to learn and then making decisions out of fear of the unknown is willful ignorance.
And I disagree, just because you can't pronounce something or don't know what it is doesn't make it bad. Hang on and I will make my point clearer. |

Location: So Cal | Anyway, I agree I don't like the NSC%- but people forget you also need to take into account the amount you feed. What's the recommended feeding amount? That's how you actually how how MUCH starch/sugar you're feeding. It's not a big deal to give a handful of a sweet feed. And something like Triple Crown (even Complete at around 20%) doesn't seem super high percentage-wise until you realize you're supposed to be feeding "5 to 15 pounds per day". That adds up!
I don't have a strong opinion, I think it depends on your horse and how much you're working them. The most important thing is to actually be aware of what you're feeding and make an informed decision... and feed it for a reason, not just because "so and so barrel racer" feeds it... |

arion - 2015-05-14 12:37 PM We might be over thinking the whole feed/nutrition thing a bit.
I kind of agree
I third this.....KISS............m
I do agree. I just feed all stock sweet feed, it's more of a treat then anything. They all look amazing on just alfalfa/grass and pasture. I've been looking for a good grain, and all the people in our area are going crazy about Roasted to Perfection. I may just stick to what I have been feeding.
That's what my horses are on, just hay, salt block, protein tub and grain when I catch them. |
