Every so often I get a call regarding a horse getting into the feed room and eating too much of something. About 20 pounds or more of grain (corn, oats, barley) is enough to cause grain overload which can result in diarrhea and/or laminitis. Treatment ASAP can help stave off these serious problems. With other types of feed it is harder to know how much is too much. Complete feeds such as senior feeds tend to be a little safer. If it is a vitamin or mineral supplement the container should have an 800 number that you can call to get guidance directly from the manufacturer. As always, prevention is the best bet so try to keep tempting feed behind locked doors! Enjoy the lovely sunshine today!
