Hi all. My pony lives out 24/7 with ad-lib hay in winter. He gets a feed once a day (chaff, beet and supplements). I usually feed him within a 2 hour window, so similar-ish timing but not exactly same. He doesn't wait at gate or seem to be desperate if I get there towards the latter end of our usual 'slot'. However work timings are changing a bit, and I might not be able to feed at similar times. So it could be late afternoon one day, morning next day, etc. Does this matter? I don't imagine he'll be too mentally distressed given he's not waiting at the gate pining for me now when I get there to feed. is there any physiological/metabolic reason why it would matter?
Thanks all!
Thanks all!
