A horse eats roughly 2 % of it's bodyweight per day in hay/ roughage. So a 1,000 pound horse would eat around 20 pounds a day. A typical 2-string square bale is around 40 pounds, so that would be half a bale per day. A 3-string bale can be 100 to 140 pounds on average so that would be a one seventh to one fifth of one of those bales.Round bales typically are 600 pounds and up so that would be one thirtieth of a bale.
