What is considered good nutrition for a horse?
I need to know about maintenance nutrition, sporting or working nutrition and energy feeds, and gestation/lactation nutrition for a horse. I prefer holistic methods if possible but any information would do.
The above answer is good, but if you are looking for a more holistic and natural diet, consider this. A normal horse should consume 5% of its bodily weight daily in food, 2% of that should be in hay or pasture. A 1200lb horse should eat 60lbs of feed a day providing he is being exercised, 24-30lbs of that should be hay or pasture. Maintenance diets should make up 3% of the horse’s weight and can mainly consist of roughage (hay). Pregnant mares require balanced vitamins and minerals, good hay and grass are a must, sunlight is important too for vitamin D. Many feed stores carry natural supplements for your horses. I recommend feeding flax seed as it is high in vitamins Amino and fatty acids which are very important (buy it whole and grind it fresh every day with a coffee grinder ) it looses potency if purchased ground and they will not digest it if it is whole.
