stjarni gets free-feed hay with two other horses, three times a day.
he's the king, so i imagine he gets about as much as he wants.

he gets half a quart of hay pellets twice a day when the other horses
get grain so he won't feel left out.  also a scoop of a hoof-strengthening
supplement, which may or may not be worth the trouble, but we're trying
it for a while at least.

i'd say let your horse's waistline and energy levels be your best guide!
