Review my feed plan

Horse Care & Husbandry

I have a 13yo TB who is under weight and under muscled. I’d say body score 4.

He’s newer to me. I bought him with my trainer last year. I followed my trainers plan for the winter to try and get him fitter and healthier. He’s gained a bit, but not enough. Long story short, I’m moving barns next week and going to be in full control of his feed. He gets very hot / agitated on high sugar feeds. He shouldn’t still be as thin as he is.

This is my plan:

Twice a day: 2 lbs masterfeed podium cool energy .5 lbs masterfeed finishing touch .25lbs optimal equalizer 1 cup alfalfa pellets 1lb dry beet pulp (soaked)

Free choice hay

Deworming again this weekend. His teeth were done in the fall. I’ve done ulcer treatment (going to do it again at the new barn)

The vet is going to come out again after his quarantine so I can get her opinion again.
