Feeding an off-the-track Thoroughbred (OTTB) can be a challenge, but we've got three tips to help you out! 🐎
Prioritize Forage: Ensure 60-80% of your horse's diet comes from forage. Alfalfa is an excellent choice for OTTBs because it's calorie-dense and high in protein.
Accommodate Picky Eaters: Many OTTBs are picky eaters, so the best feed is the one they'll actually consume. Experiment with different oils or mix in textured feeds to make their meals more appealing.
Focus on Fat: If your OTTB is underweight, look for high-fat concentrated feeds. Options like Pro Force Fuel, Purina's Ultium, and Triple Crown products with 8% fat or higher are ideal to help them gain weight.
