The horses digestive tract was designed to eat very small meals throughout the day. (They were meant to eat small meals of grass for around 18-20 hours a day). Feeding too much at one time will cause colic because the intestines were designed for small amounts of food at a time, not a few large meals all at once. this will cause blockage in the intestines, which causes colic, which can be deadly.
It depends on the horse. If your horse is fat then you need to cut down on the horse feed, but if your horse is too skinny then you need to increase their feed until the horse gets back up to his/her weight.
No, but too much sugar is bad for bunnies.
It depends on the type of horse feed. However, a general rule of thumb is that 1 quart of horse feed weighs approximately 1.25 pounds. So, 8 quarts of horse feed would weigh around 10 pounds.
Not in moderation but be careful not to feed your dog too much human food
I wouldn't recommend feeding a horse too many oranges. Too much of anything is bad. However, they should have a balanced diet so an orange once in a while isn't bad but remember that horses do have sensitive stomachs.
high-protien feed is not a very good thing to feed to your donkey also too much corn and oat hay arnt good either
It is not a bad idea to offer as much hay as he will eat without wasting too much. The amount to feed will depend on how much the pony weighs. You should feed about 2% of the ponies body weight in feed daily.
Watch the horse closely, provide plenty of water and call your veterinarian. Too much grain or concentrated feed (pellets etc) at one time can cause a horse to founder or colic. Call the veterinarian with the amount eaten and when and they will either give you instructions or come out to treat the horse.
It is bad to whip your horse, if he/she is not doing anything wrong. If your horse, or pony is seriously not listening to you, you should lightly whip them, and not threaten them too much. Remember, if you whip your horse for little or no reason, imagine you being that horse. You would also be in pain, and confusion.
it can yes, but it is just like our teeth, if they have too much it will, but its OK to have sugary treats occasionally.
Yes, don't feed them tomatoes they are too acid.
In real life, feeding a horse directly after riding can result in colic. Since colic is a very serious disorder that can result in death, feeding right after riding is not recommended. Neither is giving too much water after riding.
