The Purina Miniature Horse and Pony horse feed is specifically formulated to meet the unique needs of miniature horses and ponies who tend to be more metabolically efficient than large horses but still require the nutrition necessary for growth, gestation, lactation, breeding and competition. This controlled sugar and starch formula with Amplify high-fat nugget supplies more calories from fat and fiber for cool energy and bloom, as well as Outlast for gastric health and comfort. Comes in a large 50 lb. bag. With added beat pulp, this feed delivers slow-release energy through fermentable fiber.
For additional information on this product, please see the Product Documents section for all downloadable user manuals, installation guides, brochures and warranty statements.

- Amplify High-Fat Nugget: A proprietary blend of fatty acids from vegetable oils, flaxseed and rice bran that supports body condition, endurance and bloom
- Added Beet Pulp - Provides an excellent source of fermentable fiber for slow release energy
- Controlled Sugar and Starch - May help reduce the risk of adverse health effects caused by the management error of overfeeding

Q: Can this be fed to mini donkeys and if so how much per day
4 years ago1 Answer
- A: Here is information from Purina: Thanks for choosing Purina. We have our pdf product page online at www.purinamills.com. There you will find the suggested feeding rate per day as it depends on body weight. You will also find the following information:*This is the recommended minimum amount of hay to be fed. If feeding more hay, reduce the feeding rate of Purina® Miniature Horse and Pony Feed by 0.5 lb for every 1.0 lbs of additional hay fed. EXAMPLE: Using the chart above, if feeding 7 lbs instead of 6 lbs of hay to a 500 lb light working pony, reduce Purina® Miniature Horse and Pony Feed offered by 0.5 lb from 3.3 to 2.8 lbs per day. **Do not feed less than 0.3 lbs per 100 lbs of body weight per day. EXAMPLE: A 200 lb miniature horse has two 100 lb increments (200 divided by 100 = 2). So for this horse, do not feed less than 0.6 lbs per day (2 x 0.3 = 0.6 lbs per day). If your horse gains too much weight at that minimum feeding rate, then you should replace Purina® Miniature Horse and Pony Feed with Purina® Enrich Plus® Ration Balancing Feed. ***If foal and mare are fed together, increase amount offered by 0.25 lbs per month of age (of the foal) per day for miniature horses, and 0.5 lbs per month of age (of the foal) per day for ponies.4 years agoHelpful?
