If there is no grass you need to find hay (bales or cubes work best, but pellets will do in a pinch.) And/ or beet pulp. Alfalfa (also called lucern) will do. A horse needs long stem fiber for it's digestive system to work properly. If it does not recieve this type of fiber it can cause digestive upset and even colic.
