Question for Alan: When is it time to plant grass seed and fertilize?
Alan's Answer: Grass seed can be planted in the spring from March 15th through May 15th when the ground temperature has reached 80 and in the fall from August 15th to September 15th with successful results. If you are planting in the spring, I recommend holding off on applying weed control products to the grass until the grass seed has germinated and you have mowed the grass a few times.

Horses: Pregnant & Lactating Mares
Broodmares have specific nutritional requirements that differ from other classes of horses. There are differences both in the amount of feed mares need and the nutrient concentration needed in that feed. Throughout the year the broodmare goes through three different phases, each with a different nutritional demand. She is either in early gestation, late gestation or lactation. To keep this cycle going consistently requires that the mare receive the proper health care and nutrition. Read more on our website.
With hay in short supply across Texas, there are some options for horse owners. Complete feeds contain adequate roughage for horses and can replace hay entirely or can help extend the hay that you are able to find.
