Why Fat Horses Get Fatter
Fat horses gain weight even on reduced feed because a fat layer under the hide insulates the body and shifts consumed calories to fat storage. They burn less energy when at rest, develop larger stomach capacity, and may resist parasite burdens. A diet and exercise plan is recommended, with minimal stocking of concentrates and adequate forage.
Feeding horses on straight grass hay and light oats
Avoid concentrates to reduce fuss in the stable. Provide straight grass hay or timothy with no clover or alfalfa, about seven pounds per 1000 pounds of body weight daily in two feedings. For concentrates use light oats or a mix of sweet feed with ground wheat or barley straw, with water if dusty. If straw makes fat, switch to wood shavings and ensure exercise. County agent can assist with grinding and mixing.
