for my 15.3 hh show horse 2 make him healthy shiny and in good nick I feed him:
1st put 3-5 cups of water in the bucket because the ricebran &copra grows and if it is not soaked in water it will grow in the horses bucket and can kill them
-3/4 cup of soaked barley soak for at least 5hrs buy barley with no add ingrediances
-1/3 of a small dipper (~4 cups) of copra
-1/4 of small dipper of rice bran (refer 2 definition above)
-1 table spoon of dolomite
-1 tablespoon of sulfar
-1 tablespoon of sunflower seeds
-2 teaspoons of copper sulfate (may be known as blue stone)
- 1 tablespoon of garlic
-1/2 of apple cider vinigar
- 1 large dipper of wheaten chaff
- 1 large dipper of lucerne chaff
then mix it up very well you might need 2 put more water in the bucket so the feed is not dusty
then in a hay net put 3 large biscuits of hay in i put that much in but u don't need 2
hope this is what u r looking for

a white horse eat hay and grass
Hay
IT is what horse eat
Hay as well as horse feed and grass.
Yes, hay is a staple of the domesticated horse's diet. Fed only on high quality hay, an average horse might eat about 50 pounds of hay per day.
all i now is they eat carits and hay
No second cut hay often has more nutrients in it than first cut hay. But if the horse is overweight or not working much then first cut hay would be better if the horse will eat it.
A wild horse mostly eats grass ,hay and berries.
A horse eats grass or hay and no animals.
Not much. Horse hay is mostly green hay that comprises of 95 to 100% grass. Cow hay, on the other hand, can be as green and grassy as horse hay, but can also be hay that is much higher in legume content (often up to 90%) than horse hay.
It depends on the horse. Ask your vet to see what's right for your horse(s).
Yes horse do eat timothy hay, in fact it is one of the more commonly fed hays.
