- When fed as advised, no additional proteins, vitamins or minerals are necessary.
- Consult your veterinarian concerning proper health programs and always maintain a good worm control program.
- For more details on feeding, please see the following table and notes.
Work Load | Amount of Feed (lb./day) | Minimum Amount of Hay or Pasture Equivalent (lb/day) |
---|---|---|
Light Work | 6 | 18 |
Medium Work | 10 | 14 |
Intense Work | 15 | 16 |
This Guideline is for horses with a mature body weight range of 1100-1300 lb. (500‑590 kg).
The hay in this Guideline is an average quality mixed hay (12% crude protein & 0.85-0.90 Mcal/lb.). As the hay quality drops, the amount of feed will need to be increased and conversely, better quality hay can reduce the quantity of feed needed.
Pasture equivalent means at the same moisture content and same nutritional quality as the hay. Pasture contains approximately 70 to 80% moisture whereas hay contains approximately 10% moisture. Therefore, 1 lb. of hay is equivalent to 3 to 4.5 lb. of fresh pasture.
The amount of feed in this Guideline is meant as a starting point. Individual horse needs will vary; therefore feeding should be adjusted per individual.
The range of feed required is wide. For “easy keepers” on excellent hay or pasture, the amount of feed may be halved. On the other hand, “hard keepers” on extremely poor hay or pasture may need double the amount of feed.
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 1000 lb horse should be fed no more than 5 lb. per feeding.
If, for whatever reason, a horse is fed less than 4 lb. of feed per day, a comprehensive supplement such as McCAULEY’s TRINERGY® should be considered as an alternative. Please consult McCauley’s nutritionists for more information.
