A horse or pony should eat approximately 2% of it's body weight in hay everyday. Ponies are notoriously easy keepers so the amount of hay required to keep it in good condition may be somewhat less depending on the type and quality of the hay.

Should you put a heater in your barn for your pony in the winter?

Absolutely not! Putting a heater in a barn is just asking for a fire. If it is cold in your barn put a blanket or rug on the pony and provide extra hay for it to eat. By providing grass hay the pony's digestive tract will produce heat and keep the pony warm throughout the night. Once the temperature reaches 32 degrees Fahrenheit you'll need to supplement 2.75 to 3 pounds of extra hay for every ten degrees it drops below 32 degrees.
