The following table can be used as a guide to estimating your horse/ pony’s total daily feed requirements but regular body condition scoring is a useful and more practical way of assessing whether they may need to increase or decrease their daily intake.
Forage should be the foundation of every horse/ pony’s diet and fed ad-lib (as much as they will eat) where ever possible. For good doers, total forage intake should not be restricted to less than 1.5% of bodyweight (DM) per day. Visit the FAQ’s for tips on how to feed forage.
Compound feeds (mixes and cubes) are formulated to provide a balanced diet when fed at the recommended ration in conjunction with suitable forage.
The following table can be used a guide to for calculating the level of feed required to provide a balanced diet for horses at rest or in light work.
With the exception of SPILLERS GRO ‘N WIN®, all SPILLERS® Balancers are designed to be fed at a rate of 100g per 100kg of per day if fed alongside forage alone.
*As a guide we recommend feeding half the balancer if feeding half of the recommend ration of compound feed.
Horses are fed by weight not volume. As the density of feeds and forage varies considerably, we would always recommend them regularly. However the following table can be used as a guide.
