When I'm home! I work irregular hours at a hospital, so the horses are
fed 2 times a day. They're normally very happy to see me, whenever I
can get home. Usually breakfast is between 5 AM and 9 AM, and dinner is
at dusk. They still anticipate dinner (watch the sun?), but they graze
before breakfast until I call them.
> Grain - times of feeding per day:
Twice daily
=20
> Roughage - times of feeding per day:
Continuous access to lush pasture or the BEST grass hay that I can find.
There is always grass or hay in front of them.
=20
> Grain and Roughage at the same time? (yes or no):
Yes. I have one horse who would eat the hay before touching the grain!=20
Much easier to give it to them all at once & let them decide which they
want and when. My feeling, again, is that they should never be out of
fresh, high quality roughage. (In our case, timothy hay.)

> Colics of horses since on this regime:
NONE in 18 years!
