[QUOTE="chippie, post: 325771, member: 5644"] Horses should be 1 1/2 to 2 lbs of hay per 100 lbs of bodyweight. 2 lbs per 100 lbs bodyweight is recommended for idle horses that do not have good pasture. A 1000 lb horse should get at least 20 lbs a day. During the winter months, we feed free choice hay (Coastal Jiggs). Hay is important because the roughage in the gut helps keep the horse warm. If you want to increase the amount of hay, you could feed a bale in the morning and more in the evening. [/QUOTE]
