Full Circle Equine Care Tips Archive

As the temperatures drop and the pastures turn dormant, horse owners across the Mid-South face the seasonal challenge of adjusting their feeding programs. Unlike the lush spring and summer months, cooler weather means less fresh forage, lower natural nutrition, and increased caloric needs to maintain body condition and energy. Feeding your horse in the fall and winter requires careful balance especially in regions like ours where humidity and weather fluctuations make hay storage a challenge.

Have you ever watched your horse twitch, stomp, or swish their tail from frustration? They are likely being bothered by flies or other flying insects.  We all know insects can be a nuisance, but did you know they can also cause a serious health problem, especially for horses? Understanding the impact that insects and other bugs can have on horses can help owners keep them safe from disease and irritation.

As horses age, their needs change significantly, requiring special care to keep them comfortable, happy, and healthy. Senior horses may face specific dietary requirements, joint issues, and other health vulnerabilities. 

Full Circle Equine can help provide senior horse care by offering tailored nutritional support, regular veterinary checkups, and customized exercise programs. We ensure your horse receives the necessary attention to enhance their quality of life in their golden years.
