Weight is the biggest factor in calculating what your horse needs and is important to get right. Weight tapes are good and you can also use the girth X length measurement method (give us the measurements and we'll work it out for you). Or alternatively, tell us height in hands and carefully select the body condition score and we can work it out.

Please tell us if you are feeding any chaff or commercial forages, and any hard feeds or supplements you are feeding. Make sure to tell us how much of each your horse gets each day. For example, 1kg Oaten chaff, 2kg XYZ feed, 150gm ABC supplement.
