What do miniture horses eat?

Answer 1

You feed mini horses the same feeds as you would feed a full size horse- just in smaller portions. A mini horse should eat 1.5-2% of its body weight every day in forage (pasture or high-quality hay). Depending upon its individual needs (temperment, health, amount and type of work being done- ie pasture pet, cart horse, performance horse), you would add grain and/or supplements.

Answer 2

There is no set amount of grain for a miniature horse's diet. Not all horses require grain, but grain is helpful if the horse can't maintain weight on forage alone.

Answer 3

Miniature horses eat the same things as regular horses. They just eat smaller amounts. Talk with a trainer or vet, if you can't figure out what amount.
