*Concentrates:
Concentrates for an active horse, including grains and commercial feeds (Not more than 1% of the horse's body weight), supply energy and nutrients. However, they should be fed in moderation to avoid digestive issues.
*Forage:
Forage, such as hay and grass (Around 1.5% of the horse's body weight), should make up the majority of a horse's diet. It provides essential fiber, which is crucial for digestive health.
*Vitamins and Minerals:
Horses need a variety of vitamins and minerals to support bodily functions. Key nutrients include:
Calcium and Phosphorus: For bone health
Vitamin E and Selenium: For muscle function and immune support
B Vitamins: For energy metabolism.
*Water:
Fresh, clean water should always be available. Hydration is vital for digestion and overall health.
***You have to choose a balanced commercial horse feed to maintain the desired condition of your horse, if you are feeding a mix of grains or a mix between grains and commercial feed, please consult your veterinary to avoid excessive feeding or feeding deficiencies.
