Hi Emma,
I had a friend who lived in Scarborough, WA (Western Australia, for those in the US) when I lived in Cottesloe, WA, who had a 15 yr old mare who was on the lean side when she bought her. Sue used to feed Viorra a couple of biscuits (Flakes) of hay in the morning and a couple at night, then give her about 3 LBS of rolled barley per day, made into a nice warm mash. She’s also throw in a bucket (5 gallon) of chaffe with the warm mash.
