You must feed a horse at least once in the morning and once at night with grain, oats or whatever the veternairan recommands. Hay is very important to give it nutriens and letting it out in the feild to eat grass keeps it from not being hungry. So on average a horse never stops eating.....if it gets the chance it will
There is evidence that supports the popular opinion that feeding once a day is fine for horses. "Mature, idle horses or horses used infrequently can be fed once a day." - Doyle G. Meadows, Professor, Animal Science Basically make sure your horse gets enough food and is healthy, and if you have questions, ask your vet!
It depends on how often you exercise, and use your horse. Some people prefer to feed them three times a day, whereas some other people prefer to do it twice a day. As long as your horse is getting the correct amount of feed, it doesn't matter all that much if you feed your horse two or three meals a day (unless otherwise directed by a veterinarian.)
This truly depends on the horse or pony and your schedule. If you are feeding hay only then you need to figure out if you will be feeding it in measured amounts and if so how long it takes the horse to eat it so that you can re-supply the horse as necessary. If you feed hay free-choice then that is not an issue. If hard feeds are given then you should not feed any more than four pounds per feeding. So take how many pounds you are feeding and if it is more than four you will need to split it up into at least two feedings per day.

Many local pet stores and pet store chains do not carry horse feed. If you are looking to buy in store, the best advice for you is to call. If you are trying to buy horse feed online, you have more options. Rucker and Steinhauser's offer horse feed, and they will deliver.
you shouldn't feed soya beans
There is no standard answer because the density of the pellets vary too much. Take a quart of your feed and weigh it on a kitchen scale to get an accurate weight.
As many times as you feed him. But it is best to only feed once per day.
For a horse living out full time you need at least 1 acre per horse. I would also suggest using a vitamin supplement and if the horse is in medium to hard work then a energy food as well! If you are unsure on what to feed I recommend calling a feed supplier helpline!
Well assuming you feed each horse ten pounds just one time you could feed 2,000 horses. 1 Acre of Alfalfa can produce 20,000 pounds of hay.
