difference in food
Hi,
what is the different between the food for the horses? I know weight gain mix is for gaining weight, but what is the difference between hay, oats, performance mix, yelow corn, sweet feed, alfalfa cubes/hay? what are they for?

I think it can affect your horse's temperament, which affects how well they do in different competitions, but I'm not sure. I'm kinda new here, too, and I've been trying to find more info on this as well.

The differences between the food offers the horse different levels of protein, sugar or fiber. Depending on what you need your horse to maintain (extra energy during training or maintaining a temperament), you can change the food to try to balance your horse out.Hidalgo wrote:I think it can affect your horse's temperament, which affects how well they do in different competitions, but I'm not sure.

Right now, the feed doesn't affect anything beyond maintaining temperament and weight for competitions.
More information about the specifics on the foods can be found using the little questions mark next to the feeding heading on your horse's profile page.
