Well, horses generally eat 1.5% to 2% of their body weight in roughage a day. That is equivalent to 27lb to 36 lb. But, horses should be allowed to have it free-choice, so if he eats all 36lb, either give him more or put it in a special container that makes him work harder to pull the hay out. And if he is putting on too much weight, don't cut back on his hay- if horses go with empty stomachs, this is asking for gastric ulcers, and in the cold seasons, having the hay keeps them warm. Instead, get him hay with more stem than leaf. The stem holds less nutrition, so this will cut back on his fat while not giving gastric ulcers a chance.

How much does a 3000 pound draft horse eat?

Well this would depend on the horses weight. A horse should be fed 1 % up to 3% of it's body weight. Since a Belgian typically weighs between 1800 and 2200 pounds that means the horse could be fed anything from 18 pounds to 66 pounds of feed. With a draft horse it's best to try and start at about 2.5% of the body weight in feed and then adjust up or down from there as needed.
