Feeding directions: Weight management program - feeding Purina^®Equine Adult^®Horse Feed at a reduced rate can help horses which are obese. Begin by cutting the recommended feeding rate by 10%. Continue to adjust the rate until you reach the desired weight for your horse, then return to the feeding rates that are recommended for your horse's weight and activity level. Miniature horse/ponies - Purina^®Equine Adult^®Horse Feed is an ideal feed for miniature horses and ponies at maintenance and light work activity levels. Winter feeding - depending on your geographic location, the amount of feed may be increased by about 10-15% to offset body heat losses. Hay - small amounts of good quality hay may be fed along with equine adult. The amount of equine adult can be reduced about one pound for each 2 pounds of hay fed. Important Considerations:

Do not feed free-choice
Feed at regular times (at least twice daily). When feeding rates exceed 1% of body weight, three daily feedings are preferred
Any feed changes should be made gradually over a period of 7 to 10 days
Changes in the rate of feeding should not exceed one pound per day for each horse
Have plenty of fresh, clean water available at all times
Prevent the rapid eating by the horse of any feed stuffs
