We have found it to be different for each horse, although 1 cup per
day seems to be a good amount for most of them. Foss, who is a
Silver Dapple Black Stallion, we gave 2-3 cups of that per day. He
was in a dry lot and was only fed processed foods...very high heated
alfalfa, beet pulp, and he did get hay grasses, switched with timothy
pellets.
The gelding we have here now, gets 1 cup per day, and within 2 weeks
of his arrival he looked better than in the 5 years I have known him.
He was brown, but really now he looks like a black with a fading
gene, he is darker, shinier, more healthy looking......
