   Welcome to my forum. 

Here you will find more than 6 years of questions and my answers. It is searchable and offers a great deal of information. 

Currently, I am discontinuing new questions. This may change in the future, but in the meantime, please know that It has been a true pleasure serving you. 

Take a look at my Nutrition Library and Tips of the Month for a variety of answers on selected topics. Be sure to sign up for my monthly e-newsletter, Forage for Thought. 

I also have a growing number of recordings on "Teleseminars on Nutrition Topics that Concern You" as well as the new, Spotlight on Equine Nutrition Series -- printed versions of favorite teleseminars.

And finally, look for my articles in a variety of local publications and online newsletters, as well as the Horse Journal, where I am the Contributing Nutrition Editor.  

 

All the best,

 Dr. Getty

Re: Cribbing, colic and ulcers

Hi Kristie - If your looking for a low starch feed try Triple Crown low starch or TC lite. I have my 3 on the lite formula even my 27 yr old and he always looks fantastic. Since I discovered that feed I would never use anything else. Good Luck

Re: Cribbing, colic and ulcers

Hi Kristie,

Yes, I like Vicky's recommendation. The TC Low Starch has more fat than the TC Lite. TC Lite is more concentrated in added nutrients so you don't need to feed as much.

So, if your horse is working, go with the TC Low Starch. If you need to cut back on calories, go with the TC Lite.

Happy Holidays!
