Bosun11 537 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Predominantly a lamper, mine are fed evenings, so there is plenty of time to digest their grub from the night before. If they've had a run out in the day, I may give 'em a drop of egg n milk a few hours before a hard night but not always. Quote Link to post
bird 10,014 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Predominantly a lamper, mine are fed evenings, so there is plenty of time to digest their grub from the night before. If they've had a run out in the day, I may give 'em a drop of egg n milk a few hours before a hard night but not always. same 6-8 hours, but ive found they run out of energy on a hard long night, if not enough food from the 7 hours before. So i give a 1/4 of the normal feed r/c/m , and no prob plenty of energy then Quote Link to post
trigger2 3,315 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 i usally feed about 5 or 6 hours before going out. but my young dog seems to need to be fed 8 or 10 hours before. Quote Link to post

sandymere 8,263 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I feed in the mornings so they have the day and early eve to digest and the energy stores are full. 1 Quote Link to post

Tiny 7 1,694 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Night before. Then fed when we get back after a good warm down , my dogs have never lacked energy when out and I've had em out all day running about then out on the lamp at night. That was my feeding time, last thing at night just before bed but i started feeding in the morning times before work and they just seemed too stay that bit more over the course of the night than feeding the night before, Cause some nights they'd be running more or less a full 24/30 hrs sometimes without a bit of scran where if i feed them in the morning you can half that time and theyve had plent time time to empty out...
