Why Forage Is More Important Than Horse Feed

In this episode, Dr. Nicole Rambo and Sarah discuss why forage is more important than grain for horses. They explore the basics of equine forage, the types of forage, and the differences between forage and grain. The conversation delves into the importance of forage for a horse's digestive health, mental well-being, and behavioral health. They also touch on common mistakes in forage feeding, how to assess if a horse is getting enough forage, and how hay types like Timothy, Orchard grass, and alfalfa compare in nutrition. Listeners are encouraged to pursue a forage-first diet to ensure their horses' health and happiness.
