[RC] Need input on feeding monster horses - Lonnie Ruesch

A neighbor was in a bad accident, is in the hospital 120 mi. away in a coma, and I have been asked to feed her animals.  I have a 14h Arab cross and a l3.3h Icelandic, and her horses make mine look like "babies!"  They are not only very tall - 16-17H - but the one has to be very over weight also - are there ribs in there?  They were being given slightly moldy alfalfa.  I have taken over my grass hay - which is baled in baby bales - 50 lbs.  Additionally, it is very cold - for us - high teens @ night, up above freezing in day, but w/a biting wind.  So how much do I feed these guys?  I am less than 5', and these two horses seem so HUGE to me!
