Maintenance/Early Gestation Feed 0.25 to 0.5 pounds of feed per 100-pounds of bodyweight.
Light Exercise/Late Gestation/Breeding Stallions Feed 0.5 to 0.75 pounds of feed per 100-pounds of bodyweight.
Medium Exercise/Late Lactation (3 months to weaning) Feed 0.75 to 1.0 pounds of feed per 100-pounds of bodyweight.

Feed along with a good, clean quality hay or pasture equivalent at the rate of 1 to 1.75 lbs per 100 lbs of bodyweight daily. Make all feeding changes gradually over a two week period. Provide plenty of fresh, clean water at all times except to hot, tired horses. Horses should be cooled out properly before having access to unlimited water or being fed. Performance horses should be fed at least twice per day and may benefit from being fed more frequently. Horses should have their feeding rate reduced when exercise is reduced. Salt should be available free choice. CAUTION: Follow label directions. Feeding added selenium at levels in excess of 0.3 PPM in the total diet is prohibited.
