If your horse has problems with sugar, then yes, otherwise it should be fine.

Be sure to ease them on to it slowly, so as not to shock their system.

Consult your vet if you are still unsure, or if you do not know the medical situation of your horse.

Is sweet feed for horses supposed to be kind of sticky?

Sweet feed is usually VERY sticky, especially when you first open the bag and its fresh because most sweet feed contains molasses. It is now known that sweet feed is actually not good for a horse. Horses are not meant to consume all of that sugar. It causes a lot of problems with horses, one of the most important being the increase in hoof problems, especially laminitis and founder. Many people are taking their horses off of sweet feed but it has been a common feed for a long time and some people simply don't like change. Old habits are hard to break. I would ask you do some research and find out for yourself why hay and other roughage and whole grains without added sweeteners are much better for your horse or pony and at least consider switching. **Remember - if you decide to switch your horses feed, don't do it overnight. A sudden change in a horses' diet can cause colic which can be lethal. Gradually mix some of the new feed in with what your horse is used to and increase the amount of new feed by just a little every day for at least a week, preferably two weeks** If you'd like more information, I highly recommend reading Pete Ramey's book, called Making Natural Hoof Care Work For You. The book will prove why sugar is so bad for horses as well as suggest better alternative feeding methods. Further down this page is a direct link to Pete Ramey's website. There are also plenty of other good books and articles available on horses health and modern dietary guidelines that strongly suggest eliminating so much sugar from the horses diet.
