Ep. 081: What Type of Salt Does My Horse Need?

On this episode, co-hosts Dr. Tania Cubitt and Katy Starr discuss salt requirements for horses, including:

• What are the different types of salt and what kind does your horse need?
• Do horses know when they need more salt (or other nutrients) in their diet? Can they self-regulate?
• Feeding loose salt versus block salt – which is better for horses?

There are SO many different types of salt, it can be overwhelming knowing what exactly your horse needs. Come have a listen to get all your salt questions answered in this episode – and share with a friend!
