advice on feeding

[NooNoo59]

Ok so need some advise on how much i should be feeding,
2% of current weight for maintenance
1.5% of current weight for weight loss
1.5% of normal weight for weight loss

Confused of ashford??

I'm not really sure what it is you are asking. If you are asking about cutting down feed for weight loss it isn't always as simple as that as you need to take into account workload and quality of grazing for starters. Usually you would up the work and decrease the feed possibly even cutting down to zero hard feed if the horse really is very overweight.

oh so i did post that then, bit worse for wear last night after a bit of a session down the pub!
Is it correct that you feed 1.50% of current body weight for weight loss?
