Feeding a horse beet pulp can vary from horse to horse. Depending on if you have others in with them or how much you horse takes in daily. For me its usually 1 and a half scoops but again it varies. That is a question for your local feed store or your local vet.

Is Beet pulp good for digestive system in horses?
Beet pulp is the most underrated of all horse feed. It is a great way to put some weight on a horse without having to worry about too much protein. You can feed it dry or soak it in water for a few minutes before feeding. And even picky horses seem to like it. And I have never heard of even 1 horse that impacted from beet pulp. Another good point is it's not very expensive.

What does an horse mainly eat?
Horses mainly eat forage foods, such as hay, haylage or grass. Horses doing heavy work, elderly, sick horses or injured horses may need to be fed horse feed(eg.oats, sugar beet, pony nuts etc..) to help gain and keep condition. Amounts that should be fed vary depending on the size, weight and workload of the horse. Always consult a vet or the back of the bag of feed to find out how much to feed your horse. When buying a new horse, you should also check what feed the horses owner has been feeding him and use that feed, gradually switching to a different feed if you so wish.

How do you make beet pulp for horses?
Beet pulp can be fed wet or dry. However it is usually best to feed it soaked as it allows the beet pulp to expand and helps to get water into the horse. Typically you would measure out how much you would like to feed, then soak it for a specific amount of time, drain it and feed it. There is an old myth that beet pulp will expand in the horses stomach and make it explode, but this simply is not true. However dry beet pulp can cause choke (not the same kind of choking in people though) and you'll need a vet out to clear the horses throat, so it is best to soak it.
How do you cure a horse from scours?
Diarrhea in adult horses is pretty rare, and the first cause that should be investigated is Salmonella infection. This is potentially zoonotic and can be highly contagious to other horses, so I would recommend quarantining your horse and talking with your vet quickly.However, if your horse's bowel movements are just a little softer than expected (but still formed and smelling like normal horse pellets), you can try increasing the amount of forage you feed. Also, adding some dietary fiber like pumpkin, beet or bran can also help. Talk with your veterinarian about what kind and how much. If you choose beet, make sure you don't feed beet powder without first rehydrating it - feeding the dry powder can cause your horse's stomach to explode.
