| Hey all. Well you know about Apache now so was just wondering if anyone could suggest a good food regime for an 8 month old? He's to make 16hh and at a guess i'd say he was standing at about 13.1/2 at the moment. He's ID x TB x WB. I've been suggested Saracen Stamm-30 and Sarcen Level-Grow or something.  Any help greatly appreciated.

mine are fed but i like to build them up and i do inhand showing,the two foals- are feed haylage twice a day, and have sugarbeet and stud and youngstock mix and conditioning nuts once a day, and are turned out max 3 times a week the other two have the same but instead of sugarbeet the have mollichop i feed mine, how all welsh pony owners do if they showing, basically so they have so much energy they with fly round the show ring but unlike those mine aren't locked in the stable 24/7: anywho, if u not showing just feed hay or haylage that all my shetland foals had, but if u feel he needs a little something else i think the stud and youngstock mix come in a cube form
make the promise~ come home safe

| over the 14 months or so that i've had my boys they've had a wide variety of feed! they started off with the youngstock mix, sugar beet and hoofkind chaff but now they get mix, nuts, sugar beet and hoofkind chaff.............basically what i give Finn but in a lesser amount! they also have haylage in the field as there's no grass there and they have a net of haylage at night when they come in.

Because of Philly's ongoing tummy troubles I have switched from stud balancer and chaff to fast fibre with grass nuts, brewer's yeast and a vit/min supplement, the boys get alfalfa chaff but she doesn't because I am too frightened she will choke on it again! I have just made sure that they always have access to good quality grass or forage and that their vits/mins are met, they look so shiny even now with their winter woolies, and have grown up well, but not too fast that I would worry about it.
