Feeding Horses S1 E3: Hay is for Horses, Part 1

In this episode, host Stephanie Ruff talks with Dr. Carey Williams, Equine Extension Specialist and Interim Director of the Equine Science Center at Rutgers University, in New Brunswick, New Jersey, where she focuses on equine nutrition, exercise physiology, and management practices that promote horse health and performance. They have a great conversation about all things hay–why it’s important, what types there are, how to determine how much to feed, and more! Even in Viral Ideas, Real Horses they discuss if green hay is always a better choice. Tune in! When it comes to feeding your horse, consistency matters—but so does knowing when to improve. At Tribute Equine Nutrition , formulas aren’t changed often. As a fixed-formula brand, they only make updates when new research shows they can make a meaningful difference—whether that’s improving digestibility, optimizing nutrient absorption, or better supporting the horse’s overall health and performance. That’s why Tribute Equine Nutrition is upgrading every formula in their lineup, building on improvements made to their best-sellers and rolling those advancements out across 2026. And to mark the rollout, Tribute has added a little excitement. Golden tickets—worth up to a year’s supply of feed for one horse—have been placed in random bags as the updated formulas are released. For anyone wondering where to start, Tribute’s team offers a free, personalized feeding plan tailored to each horse’s needs. They’ll guide owners through the process—and for those new to Tribute, the first bag is shipped right to their door, free.
