In this episode, I had the privilege of interviewing Dr Nerida Richards who is an Equine Nutritionist and one of the amazing faces behind FeedXL, an online horse nutrition calculator.

Together we discussed all things equine nutrition with a focus on feeding for good behaviour including:

• An overview of her journey with horses and how she dove into a career involving animal nutrition
• Some horse nutrition mistakes that she made when she was younger
• How our horse's diet can impact their behaviour
• Top tips for feeding any horse and how important a balanced diet is for long term health
• Ulcer management and feeding principles to help prevent them from occurring
• Common feeding mistakes people make with horses
• Feeding adjustments to make if your horse is hot/more sensitive
• Feeding adjustments to make if your horse is on the lazier side
• Feeding poor doers like off the track TB's and how to turn them into good doers
• The importance of forage in your horse's diet
• Feeding good-doers how to still feed a lot of forage and manage their condition
• Feeding warmbloods and how they are predisposed to PSSM
