About 20 lbs. Per day if your Horse is working substantially every day.
Answer2:
A horses height doesn't really factor into how much hay it will need. What does factor in is the horses weight, age and activity level. A horse requires anywhere from 1.5% to 3.0% of it's body-weight in feed a day. Height not being a factor is due to the fact that no two horses of the same height may weigh the same.
19.8
About 13 pounds
howrse: 19.8 poundsIt depends on how much work the horse is doing and how much other food its getting.
If it's grass hay they can eat as much as they want. I don't know if this helps but I read somewhere that wild horses graze for up to 18 hours a day.
If a horse needs 2.2lbs of hay per 100lbs of body weight per day, a 900lb horse needs 19.8lbs of hay per day. 2.2 times the value of (900 divided by 100)=19.8 900 divided by 100 is equal to 9 2.2 times 9 is equal to 19.8
It depends on the horse. Ask your vet to see what's right for your horse(s).
Since the horse eats 3 bales of hay every 6 days, you have to find out how much of a bale the horse eats in 1 day. You divide both by 6, getting that the horse eats 0.5 (1/2) of a bale of a day. You have to multiply this by 32. The answer is about 16 bales of hay. : )
19.8 pounds of hay
It would be 2.2 x 9, so the answer would be 19.8 pounds of hay per day!
Here's the formula: (weight)/100 * 2.2 = pounds of hay per day your answer is 19.8, but that number is only a starting point. your horse may eat more or less in a day, and may need to be restricted because of obesity. free choice hay is best, but be mindful of the wasted hay.
You multiply 2.2 by 9 to get 19.8lbs, or about 20lbs.
Any hay can founder a horse, it is not what the horse eats but how much it eats. Some feed can founder a horse faster than others. Peanut hay is one of those.
