Divide the recommended daily feed amount equally into two or more equally spaced feedings per day. Feed at the same times each day. Fresh, clean water should be available at all times. Always cool down horses properly following exercise, including proper watering, before feeding. Provide salt free choice. Mineral may be offered if appropriate.
