A horse or pony should be fed between 1% to 3% of it's bodyweight in food a day. The base of the diet should always be forage such as hay or grass, with supplemental feeds added if they are needed.

∙ 16y agoAs with any horse they eat according to their weight /size and the work they do...For example (this is one way I do it)...serve about 1 pound per hand...if the horse is around 14 hands high then you (theoretically) would give it 13-14 pounds of hay per day and 20 to 30 ounces of grain a day (corn, oats, barley).

How much should a miniature dachound weigh at the age of 5?
I have a miniature dachsund myself and they only get to be about 12 pound at the most. Regular dachsunds would get up to 15 pounds. My dachsund is small for a miniature and she will get to be about 7 pounds 10 at the most. But you have to watch how much they eat because these type dogs are prone to being obese. If given a choice they will eat and eat and eat.

Technically yes, horses can eat golden syrup. However it is not recommended that you give it to them as it is pure sugar and horses do not need added sugar in their diet.

Too much sugar in a horses diet can cause health problems and should be avoid as much as possible.
