As I just posted, I got a second horse. (I wish someone would reply to it *cry*) She's about 150 lbs underweight. I have Blue Seal Charger course feed, it only has 14 grams of protein (the only thing with higher was for mare with foal). How should I go about putting more weight on her? How many scoops in the morning, at night? What's safe and what's not? How much turnout a day? All day, or is that not a good plan? (Note: my pastures are rich in lush grass that "can be too good for them" if they get too much time out in it). Thanks!
