About this episode
How much protein, fiber, and fat should your horse get in a day? It's a pretty simple question, that seems like it should have a readily available answer. The problem is that this answer and many more concerning our horses diets and the research about it, are kept behind a pay wall. Join us as we piece together what our horses grain should actually contain and if brands like Purina, Nutrena, Dumor, and Triple Crown are following through.
