Fall is finally here in North Texas, and we couldn’t be happier. The mornings feel crisp, the afternoons are easier, and our horses seem to perk right up. But cooler weather also means it’s time to rethink how you feed.
At Berend Bros., we’ve helped horse owners across Windthorst, Wichita Falls, Bowie, and Olney get ready for the season for years. Here’s where to start:
Adjust feed as it cools
- Horses burn more energy staying warm, so they may need extra calories.
- Stop by for quality horse feed to match their needs this fall.
Transition slowly
- Make feed changes over a week or two to keep their tummies happy.
- Pair good feed with quality hay for steady, healthy energy.
Check their body condition
- Run your hands along the ribs to feel for cover going into winter.
- A little extra weight now helps your horse handle the cold.
Add support where needed
- Ask us about supplements to fill any gaps in their diet.
- Fresh bedding keeps your horse warm, dry, and comfortable.
A few small changes now pay off big once winter sets in. Trust us, your horse will feel the difference.
Ready to get your horse fall-ready? Come see us at any Berend Bros. location. We’ll help you find the right feed, hay, and supplies. We’d love to see you soon!
