We’re introducing a new series – on this episode of Feeding Fumbles & Fixes, host Katy Starr chats with equine nutritionist Dr. Kelly Vineyard, to break down the five most common winter feeding mistakes horse owners make and how to fix them, including:

• Cold weather factors that increase the risk of colic and dehydration
• The nutrient that drops significantly in horse diets from summer to winter feeding and how to meet their requirements
• What horse owners feed to try to keep their horses warm and what actually works

Winter horse care can be challenging, but this episode will help you feel prepared to keep your horse healthy this winter. ❄️
