Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Lupins: A Soy Alternative for Horses
Q: So how do lupins compare with a traditional soybean meal?
Both are protein sources. Soybean meal is generally higher in protein and more concentrated in amino acids, but the two have different profiles and neither is automatically the better choice for every formulation.
Lupins: A Soy Alternative for Horses
Q: And are lupins safe for horses?
Sweet lupin meal sourced from low-alkaloid varieties is safe for horses and has been used in Australia and Europe. Wild lupins can contain toxic alkaloids and should not be fed to horses.
Is Your Horse’s Diet Ready for Winter?
Q: What should I look at first when my horse seems to be losing weight as we head into fall?
Check the current hay quality and body condition first, then adjust the diet by increasing appropriate calories and fiber while considering the upcoming winter workload and the need to maintain warmth.
Ration Balancers for Horses: Does the Difference Really Matter?
Q: Why do we include some veggies and seeds in Wholesome Blends Balancer?
They bring varied nutritional profiles and create a more palatable feed, which can help horses that are picky while still delivering identical key nutrients as the traditional balancer.
Ration Balancers for Horses: Does the Difference Really Matter?
Q: What is the difference in the NSC between Essential K and Wholesome Blends balancer?
The NSC difference is about 3 percentage points, with Essential K at around 12% NSC and Wholesome Blends at around 15% NSC, which translates to roughly 13 extra grams of sugars and starch per pound of feed per day.
