D&H pasture nuts

[jake]

Has anyone had experience of these?

has anyone found that they are a little heating?

The reason I ask is that when I put Sidney on them he was pure evil and I just thought that this was him and this feed. I have just started a second bag with Ru and she is "uncontrollable" for want of a better word.

I am now nursing a rather badly brused neck and shoulder after she deposited me on the floor on saturday. I will hasten to add she is such an obliging and well behaved girl, but this episode she really did mean for me to be on the floor.

If I get a bag of economy cubes and mix the two do you think that this may improve the situation

the econamy ones made my old horse nuts haha
my friend uses the pasture mix and it makes her horse quite hyper too but i think its a medium energy feed tho and it does have cereals and sugar in it so you horse could be reacting to these rather than the feed if you get me?
try the top spec honest its great for keeping them cool

iv tried it then i went back to a cheaper brand but i wasnt happy so im going back to top spec and you dont have to feed as much either

I've used D&H nuts with Todd for years and he was fine with them,but last year with the credit crunch I switched to economy after seeing how well my sisters horse was doing on them and again I've had no problems.

Tickle eats D&H pasture nuts, now high fibre cubes and she does great on them. Mind you I don't ride her so not sure how 'heating' they are.
I think different feeds definitely effect different horses differently. Tickle can't cope with anything with alfalfa in it. She comes out in scabby lumps and her feet abscess. She has recently been ill because I tried a different feed supplement. So, I wouldn't underestimate feed affecting horses behavior.
