Does my horse need hard feed at all?
Many leisure horses do not need hard feed if they get enough good hay. A horse on a maintenance ration usually covers its energy requirements with 1.5–2 kg forage per 100 kg body weight.
Hard feed becomes useful if forage alone is not enough: for high performance, for horses that are too thin, or if the hay has a low energy content. Late-cut hay provides significantly less energy than early-cut hay.
How much hard feed can I give per meal?
A maximum of 1 g starch per kilogram of body weight per meal, split into at least three meals a day. This keeps the amount of starch per portion well tolerated by the digestive system.
As a rough guideline, animal nutrition experts recommend a maximum of 0.3 kg hard feed per 100 kg body weight per meal and around 1 kg per 100 kg per day. Hard feed is only added once the requirement cannot be covered by forage.
Oats, muesli or pellets: what is the difference?
Oats are a tried-and-tested straight feed, while mueslis and pellets are compound feeds with several components. In addition to oats, maize and barley are mainly used as cereals, and pellets and mueslis differ primarily in digestibility.
Grain-free mixes are suitable for horses that should receive little starch. For horses with Cushing’s syndrome, experts recommend a ration with less than 10% sugar and starch and feed that is free from cereals and molasses. The best approach is to coordinate this with your vet.
Why should I give hay before hard feed?
Hay before hard feed protects the stomach, because the horse’s stomach produces acid continuously, even when it is empty. The long chewing time for hay stimulates plenty of saliva and creates good conditions for digestion.
Gaps of more than four hours without forage increase the risk of gastric ulcers and colic. Ahrens Reitsport’s feed and care advice will help you choose the right hard feed.
