Feeding Horses S1 E7: Tips for Feeding Easy Keepers

Welcome to Feeding Horses, sponsored by Tribute.

In this episode, Stephanie Ruff is pleased to welcome Madeline Boast with Balanced Bay, based in Ontario, Canada, to talk about her favorite subject–feeding the easy keeper. Madeline completed her master’s degree in equine nutrition at the University of Guelph and then started her own independent nutrition company. She is currently back parttime at the University of Guelph pursuing her PhD in equine nutrition specializing in equine obesity and metabolic dysregulation. Listen in to hear her top tips on keeping the easy keeper healthy.
