Free choice hay

Here's a light hearted post on feeding free choice hay.

Farley is doing very very well on free choice grass hay. I would count my decision to go to free choice on the grass among one of the most important horse-management decisions I've made. Now that the weather is getting colder, I think I need to up her beetpulp and perhaps add 3-5 pounds of alfalfa a day - staying ahead of a weight problem is so much easier than trying to put significant weight on a horse!
