   1. Out of those choices I would say ‘Easy Keeper’ but its often refered to as the horse being a ‘good doer’.

   2. The main vitamin for fertility in stallions is vitamin E.

   3. The best thing to do is to feed a full vitamin and mineral suppliment daily in the form of a powder. I don’t like licks as they’re usually packed with molasses so the horse may be taking in more than they need due to the nice taste, they wash away in the rain and contain mainly salt. The only mineral a horse actively seeks out is salt, so to provide a pure salt lick along with a vit/min suppliment mixed in feed is the best option.

   4. From those figures, 19.8

   5. This depends on many things for the individual horse. You need to take into factor the horses weight, age, temperament and intensity of exercise. Carbohydrates provide energy, protein for muscle growth and repair, fats for energy and weight and glucose to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

   6. Mainly processed sugars such as those found in honey, molasses etc cause dental problems. Natural sugars found in fruit are much safer. Too much processed sugar can certainly create dental problems yes.

   7. Those are all possible symptoms of colic. Recent events may indicate what type of colic the horse is suffering from or a veterinary diagnosis. From those symptoms it is impossible to accurately pin point which type of colic the horse would be suffering from.

   8. Corn has the highest digestable energy rate of the listed grains with oats being the lowest.

   1 – A horse that requires little extra dietary maintenance and maintains a healthy weight is often times called a: Usually referred to as an Easy Keeper

   2 – What vitamin is essential for a breeding stallion to have in his diet? None of these (it is Vitamin E)

   3 – If your horse is lacking minerals, what can you do to help add more minerals to their diet? Provide a Mineral Block, but all would work except red meat.

   4 – If a horse needs 2.2 pounds of hay per 100 pounds of body weight per day, how much hay does a 900 pound horse need in a day? 19.8 pounds of hay

   5 – Horses that are frequently exercised need what?
   Well, they need carbohydrates and fats the most, but I guess all of them could help. I’m not sure which one is “correct”.

   Sorry, don’t have time to answer the others…

   Hope this helps!

   1 – Easy keeper. I’ve two of those
   2 – Vitamin B for vitality, but really E should be in any stallion’s diet too
   3 – All but red meat. Most horses are not carniverous
   4 – 19.8
   5 – Actually depends on the individual horse, but you’re probably looking for all the above
   6 – True. Any bad smells from the mouth should be investigated by a dentist for likely rotted teeth
   7 – All of those are possible problems
   8 – Corn, but you cannot feed it whole. Crimp, grind, or otherwise break it up. Equines cannot make full utilization of whole corn
