5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite horse related book, Feb 7 2007
By Marcia Pace "Fjordbergen Farm" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Feeding and Care of the Horse (Paperback)
This book is very informative. We have 6 horses with different nutritional needs and this book is my favorite "go to" source. It has lots of tables regarding optimal growth rate, nutrient needs etc. It has a very good section on deworming and much more. There are quite a few nutrition related books for less money, however, they are not as detailed as this one and often they cite this book as their source.

4.0 out of 5 stars very useful book, April 12 2007
By politicalpony - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Feeding and Care of the Horse (Paperback)
This is an incredibly detailed book, especially in terms of the nutritional needs of horses. The nutrient and ration tables in the back have been invaluable for tailoring diets specific to my horses' needs. My only complaint is that the second edition was published in 1996 and it is getting a bit dated. There is no discussion of the newer "nutraceutical" supplements on the market these days, or new research into topics already covered. I am hoping for a third edition, but I suspect I shouldn't hold my breath.

This review is from: Feeding and Care of the Horse (Paperback)
This book was missing tables from Appendix Table 4 page 414 to Index Page 431. The book was bought new. Makes it really hard to complete assignments when part of your book is missing.
