Hi again. Your main source of calories should come from good forage but if that is unavailable, you will need to add more fat to the diet. You can do this with vegetable oils, especially doybrsn oil rather than corn oil. Start with 2 ounces of oil twice daily & gradually build up to 8 ounces twice daily. Another source of fat is stabilized rice bran, which is about 20% fat & is palatable to horses. This is also less messy than an oil. You would feed the same increasing amount as the oil. Watch the manure for any signs of diarrhea or loose stool & back off the fats as necessary. Hope this helps & thanks againfor using Boop by Petco.

If you are sure the horse will eat all of the feed with the paste, you can add it. However it would be better to directly give the paste into the mouth as it is a very expensive medication and your horse needs the full dose appropriate for its weight. Giving the paste directly into the mouth, then holding the mouth shut for a few seconds will ensure the paste is swallowed. If you are not sure how it is done, ask some of the barn mates to help you dose your horse.

Sedalin contains acepromazine, which is a commonly used horse tranquilizer, and, depending on the dose, the effects should wear off in 6-24 hours. Bombproof is a supplement that contains tryptophan to try to help with calming and is not a prescription sedative. I would not routinely use these products together, but it should be ok once. If you see that Tally seems overly sedate to the point where he could harm himself, I recommend that he be seen by a vet immediately. Until the sedation from the combination of these products wears off, he should not be worked or ridden.
