Back to normal

Just a quick update on Gussie, she seems to be back to normal. I washed her off this afternoon, and when it came time to put out the evening feed I was happy to see this:
She was standing with Coyote Belle at the (nearly) empty feeder, patiently waiting for hay to be put out for their royal highnesses.
Big Butt Brigade
As you can see, the girls are well fed. Other than that last bale, I feed straight grass hay, free choice salt and Hoffmans Horse Minerals, and water (with a tank heater). Nothing fancy, and usually I have no problems. One thing I meant to mention in my last post, my friend Carol over at All These Pretty Horses is a distributor for Dynamite Marketing and one of the products I ordered from her is Dyna-Pro, a probiotic- and I ordered it especially for Gussie. I used it on her years ago and it worked really well. It should be here soon, along with a couple other products. Check out her website, these are some really good products. 

You're disturbing my dinner.

Glad Gussie came around so quickly! Yup the KISS theory applies to feeding horse as well. Though I do like to have Diamond Yeast , or a probiotic on hand for the sensitive tummies as well will have to check out Carols products

Glad she's doing better. I hate when my horses aren't feeling good--it will occupy my mind all day.
