This will depend on the horses breed and actual age. You should consult with a equine vet about proper nutrition. Or you can go to a feed store and ask the clerk there about proper feeding as many of them know a good bit about feeding youngstock.

It can depend on their activity level, but on average a horse will eat just under about half a square bail of hay daily.
