This can get very complicated, it depends on if the horses is outside during the day, how much weight it is carrying at the time, if the horse is stabled during the day, and things like that, if you leave your horse outside 24/7 then you really only need to give it a lot of exercise in Spring and Summer, and feed it a slab or two of hay during Autum and Winter. ;)

There are many things that can set in motion the process of laminitis. Any shock to the horse's system can result in founder. Some mares will founder after giving birth.

Other times too much grain or sweet feed. Any person that knows about horses has heard stories of unlocked feed rooms that are a magnet to hungry horses. Prevention is always the best way to go. Keep feed locked away, limit your horse on green lush pastures, cool your horse down before allowing him too much water. Some horses are more prone to this condition, ponies are usually the most vulnerable, so use good sense and you can reduce the risk of founder.

If a horse eats 2.2 pounds of feed per 100 pound body weight how much should a 900 pound horse eat?
for howrse ... 19.8 Answer 2: Horses require anywhere from 1% to3% of their body-weight in feed a day. Going by a strict number such as 2.2 pounds of hay per 100 pounds of body-weight can cause problems if the horse is an easy or hard keeper as it may be too much or too little. However at 2.2 pounds per 100 pounds of body-weight for a 900 pound horse that would equal out to 19.8 pounds of hay a day. ( 2.2 x9=19.8).
