It's generally recommended to deworm a horse on a full stomach rather than an empty one. Administering dewormers after feeding can help reduce the risk of gastrointestinal upset and ensure better absorption of the medication. Additionally, some dewormers may be more effective when the horse has food in its system. Always consult your veterinarian for specific advice regarding deworming protocols for your horse.

Because a horses stomach is only as big as a rugby ball. If you fed it once everyday then it will get colic (stomach ache) , which can kill your horse, because the food won't be able to fit. Whereas if you feed your horse in small amounts then it will be able to empty its stomach and allow more food in.
What should you do if your horse doesn't take the dewormer?
If the dewormer is in a paste, you will have better results if you first train your horse to accept the oral syringe. This is usually done by filling an empty syringe with something sweet so the horse will begin to enjoy having it put into his mouth. This is best done over a few days or weeks. When it's time to de-worm him, simply substitute the real thing for the sweet syringe. Just be sure to continue using the sweet syringe periodically so he will continue to look forward to it. Another method is to thoroughly mix the dewormer with grain. If the horse still refuses it, adding molasses to it usually works to entice him to eat it. If the horse still refuses the dewormer, your veterinarian may be able to tube worm him for you. When this happens, the veterinarian will put a tube into the horse's nose and down his throat to his stomach. The dewormer solution is then put into the tube where it goes directly into the horse's stomach. This is an old, but very accurate way to deworm your horse.

What is the main type of food horse and ponies eat?
Grass or grass hay is what should be the core part of their diet. Forage is what keeps the horse in his healthiest condition. If the horse does not have grass or grass hay to eat 24/7, he will have periods where his stomach is empty, and when this happens, the gastrical juices in his stomach slosh around to a senstive part in his stomach, and can eat away at this part, causing ulcers. Horses are also commonly fed legumes, like alfalfa (which in excess wil cause stones in the digestive tract, so it should not be a large part, if any part, in the horse's diet) and grain also makes a good sized portion of the horse's diet.
