Welcome to the show!

 

This week your hosts will meet with Dr. Bob Coleman form UK. This episode will be an update of recent events, Spring planning, and much more.

 

Timely Tip: GIVE YOUR HORSE PLENTY OF TIME TO ADAPT TO NEW PASTURES! Green pastures contain a high moisture content, so recognize that water intake may change from normal amounts. Allow time for microbes to adjust for proper digestion.
