Well, I know she has said she has never floated teeth:\, but I did watch him and he isn't dropping any feed. So I don't know about that. She has her own hay meadow, it's pretty good pararie hay. The feed she uses is good feed, I use to feed it when I fed grain and hay, she just doesn't give them enough, IMO.

I'd almost guarantee he needs his teeth floated to chew properly. Even if he's not dropping feed, if he's not chewing properly, he's passing a lot of what she does feed undigested. The senior feeds are a little better than that in that they are all ground up already, instead of whole grains. In addition to that, sharp edges in his mouth wear sores in his cheeks, and they are constantly fighting a low grade infection.
