The age of a horse is important when determining how much to feed it. Horses that are growing need more nutrition than a horse who is not growing or working. Horses who are working hard, breeding, or are in foal or lactating also need more feed. Sometimes very old horses require more feed to keep them healthy because their bodies aren't as efficient at using what they are eating.

What is Appaloosa horse diet?
A horse's diet is based more on his activity level, age, and metabolism then his breed. I have an Appaloosa used for trail riding. He eats hay twice a day, and gets a small amount of grain once a day (mainly just to mix in his garlic supplement). If an Appaloosa was used for racing, however, his grain ration would be much higher.
