Day 2: Nutrition & Feeding Excellence 🐴🌾
At Blue Ribbon Stable LLC, we understand that proper nutrition is one of the foundations of a healthy, happy horse. That’s why we’ve developed a feeding program that prioritizes quality, consistency, and attention to detail.
Here’s what sets our feeding program apart:
🐴 1. Premium Tribute® Horse Feed Included
Indoor boarding includes Tribute brand horse feed, a trusted, high-quality feed with multiple formulas available to meet the individual nutritional needs of every horse.
🐴 2. Convenience for Our Boarders
Because grain is supplied by the barn, owners don’t have to worry about purchasing, transporting, or remembering to bring feed.
🐴 3. Twice-Daily Grain Feedings
Indoor boarded horses receive grain twice daily, following the feeding schedule commonly recommended by equine veterinarians.
🐴 4. Supplement Administration
We gladly feed owner-provided supplements up to twice daily. Each horse has a dedicated, secure container to keep supplements organized and protected.
🐴 5. Safe Feed Storage
All grain is stored in secure containers to protect it from dust, pests, moisture, and contamination.
🐴 6. Accuracy You Can Trust
Our feeding system is designed to ensure every horse receives the correct feed every time. Each horse has a labeled scoop with color-coded identification that matches its designated feed, along with detailed feeding charts. One staff member prepares all feed, and a second staff member verifies every feeding before it is delivered.
🐴 7. High-Quality, Tested Hay
We feed premium-quality hay that is professionally tested each year. Hay analysis results are available upon request for current and prospective boarders.
🐴 8. Low-Sugar Hay Available
For horses with specific dietary requirements, we also offer low-sugar hay.
🐴 9. Unlimited Outdoor Hay Access
Horses have access to free-choice hay while outdoors throughout the year.
🐴 10. Small Bales Available for Travel
While we primarily use large square bales, we also provide small bales for boarders to use when attending horse shows, clinics, or camping trips—at no additional charge.
🐴 11. Covered Hay Feeders
All pastures are equipped with covered hay feeders to help keep hay clean and protected from mud, manure, and the elements.
🐴 12. Clean, Slow Feeding in Stalls
Horses receive their stall hay in ½-bale Easy-Up Hay Chix® hay nets. This helps keep hay clean, reduces waste, encourages slower consumption, and provides generous forage at each feeding.
🐴 13. Clean Feeding Areas
We maintain clean, organized feeding areas to minimize contamination and discourage rodents and other pests.
🐴 14. Lush Seasonal Grazing
From May through the end of October, horses enjoy access to our well-maintained grass pastures, allowing them to graze naturally while benefiting from quality forage and daily turnout.
🐴 15. Free-Choice Mineral Supplementation
All pastures are equipped with mineral blocks to ensure horses have access to essential vitamins and minerals whenever they need them, helping to support their overall health and well-being.
At Blue Ribbon Stable LLC, every detail of our feeding program is thoughtfully designed to promote your horse’s health, comfort, and well-being. We believe that exceptional care starts with exceptional nutrition—and we’re committed to providing both every single day.
