Somewhere recently I just read that feeding less feed than normal, spread out more times per day, is equal to feeding two bigger quantity meals. Does that make sense?
It not only makes sense, in my experience it is true. I used to buy off track thoroughbreds, always quite thin when they got here. And Hunter was also very thin when I bought him. The most effective and safest way to put weight on a horse is with several small feedings a day. I would even divide their grain up into three servings. After all, thry are a grazing animal. Nancy
