Life Stage
Amount of Feed (lbs./day)
Amount of Hay or Pasture Equivalent (lbs./day)
This guideline is for horses with a mature body weight range of 1,100-1,300 lbs. (500-590 kg). The amount of feed given at any one time should be no more than 0.5% of the horse’s body weight. For example, a 1,000 lb. horse should be fed no more than 5 lbs. per feeding.
Free-choice salt and fresh, clean water should be available at all times. Do not feed additional proteins, vitamins or minerals unless instructed to do so by a qualified professional.
It is important to remember that each horse has individual feeding needs and that these needs may vary depending on season, hay quality, life stage and level of work. Consult with your veterinarian or one of our nutritionists for specific dietary recommendations.
If, for whatever reason, a horse is fed less than 4 lbs. of feed per day, a comprehensive supplement such as McCauley's M30® should be considered as an alternative.
