I have a little native gelding who is incredibly itchy. Not sweet itch, but scratches his mane off in summer (tail is ok). I've been wondering if the alfalfa in his feed is the culprit as he gets really itchy straight after eating his breakfast and dinner. He's currently fed Dengie Alfa A molasses free with a low cal balancer. He's been treated for lice just in case!
Has anyone found that their horse gets itchy with this feed? And if so can you suggest a chaff that might be better? He's a very good doer, so nothing sugary like happy hoof. Thank you for any suggestions
