Can you tell if a horse is too fat? Take a quiz to find out

Horsetalk.co.nz Can you tell if a horse is too fat? Take a quiz to find out One of the horses in Spiller’s body scoring quiz. © Spillers Equine feed company Spillers is helping horse owners “get their eye in” on Body Condition Scoring (BCS) by running an online test to see who can spot an overweight horse or pony. The test involves assessing photographs of 15 horses and marking their BCS using the 1-9 scale. Obesity is a major welfare issue for horses and ponies, not only because of the direct weight-associated effects, but also because of the increased risk it poses for certain clinical conditions, in particular laminitis.

Grass length and grazing muzzles: Why horses get hacked off

Horsetalk.co.nz Share Medium and long swards of grass proved more difficult for ponies wearing grazing muzzles, a recent study found. © Spillers Research into the use of grazing muzzles to help with equine weight management has revealed that longer grass can be more difficult to graze, causing frustration-related behaviour in some horses and ponies. Grazing muzzles have been shown to reduce the pasture intake of ponies by about 80% by significantly reducing bite size and intake. Ponies fitted with grazing muzzles may spend more time engaging in foraging and eating than their non-muzzled counterparts, yet the majority either lose weight or retain their body condition. This in turn helps reduce susceptibility to obesity and related disorders, such as insulin dysregulation and laminitis.
