Feed recommendations for laminitis prone horse?

You should feed her a feed with a low NSC value. Most feed websites will list this - it pretty much means low carb. I have a pony on Triple Crown Senior. Not only is it a complete senior feed, but it also has a low NSC value. All four of my horses think it's tasty, but three usually don't get it.

Senior feeds are complete and nutritionally balanced, so she shouldn't need additional supplements. You could make her salt block a mineral salt block, though.

If she has her winter coat, I would only blanket her when she shows signs of being cold (shivering, or standing kind of hunched up, etc). It might help. I think it would probably be better for her to end the winter slightly underweight instead of slightly overweight.

We fed ours soaked hay (24 hours, so all the sugar ect has been removed) we also put them on a low sugar feed (such as happy hoof). She also went out in the field with a grazing muzzle, and we cut out all carrots ect(as they are high in sugar)

We now feel her neck, if it feels really fern we keep her off the grass for a couple of days until it has softened xx

My laminitus prone horse eats, hay, a bit of grass, and some Bailey's Lo-cal pellets ( 2 coffee mugs a day) I am in the UK they are on sale there, but if u are in the US im not sure if they're there.

I feed a low carb/sugar feed and my horses love it. Seminole makes the feed. Used to be called safety first, but it's something else now. Rice bran, beet pulb and other feeds like that are safe for laminitics. You might think about trying herbs. www.forloveofthehorse.com sells herbs for laminitics and the nourish one might be useful to help her metabolize her food better. Make sure you keep her off grass especially fall and spring as this is when the grasses sugar is highest. Free feed the hay so that she always has food in her stomach. Oil is safe to give. Canola is best. Senior feeds generally have molasses and other grains and sugars. Stay away from it! Most feeds do not have proper nutrients to it and I supplement my horses with a vitamin/mineral supplement. There are also kelp based supplements that are great for other minerals and selenium. You might also try a pro-biotic to help her digest her food more readily. As a laminitic, you're better off with a low weight horse than a round one. Most people are used to seeing fat horses and that's not healthy. You should be able to feel ribs easily thru the hide and see them when the horse moves when the horse is in good weight. If you can't feel ribs, there's fat pads on the neck, over the tail or on the belly, you're looking at trouble.
