Pasofever
Does my butt look big?
So someone posted this on the paso board
I have a 10 yo gelding that has lost alot of weight since last year. According to the body scoring chart he is emaciated. You can see his ribs,he has a significant space between his thighs (twist) and his hips are very pointed and pretruding. He is wormed on a routine basis and up to date on all shots. My horses are not on grass, but in a wooded pasture. He's fed ferscue hay, we use to feed coastal hay but it became to hard to get with the hay shortage, his grain is Triple Crown Senior even though he's not real old it was suggested that we feed him that because of the beet pulp and fat intake but nothing seems to be working. I'm really scared of alphalfa hay from the stories I have heard regarding to colic and such. I just want him to gain his weight back. My husband is ashamed to ride him bc people may think we don't feed him right. My horses are a part of my family and I want ot do the right thing by him. Any advice on what might work.
I write this
I actually gasped when I opened this thread..it has gone on too long..find out what is wrong and get it fixed asap..poor fella really looks bad..good luck
