Explore our comprehensive Horse Feed FAQs, where we provide answers to common questions and address important topics related to equine nutrition, feeding guidelines, dietary considerations, and more, empowering you with the knowledge to make informed decisions and provide optimal nutrition for your horses.
View All FAQs

What role does protein play in my horse’s diet?

Horses of all ages require adequate amounts of protein for maintenance, growth, reproduction and work, with growth and reproduction being the most critical time periods.  Proteins are important building blocks for body cells.
Listed below are protein percentages required by the major categories of horses – these are for the TOTAL DIET, not just the grain portion.
Foals: 16-18%
Weanlings: 14-16%
Yearlings: 12-14%
Mature horses: 10-12%
Lactating mares: 12-14%
In order to figure out the total protein in your horses’ diet, follow this simple calculation:
( (Lbs Hay x Protein in Hay) + (Lbs Grain x Protein in Grain) ) / Total Lbs Fed = Protein in Total Diet
PLEASE NOTE:
While the total protein in the horse’s diet is important, horses also require essential amino acids, even though crude protein is what is required by law to be listed in a Guaranteed Analysis. Many feed manufacturers are moving towards listing the amino acids on the tag, which can help horse owners to see the quality of the protein sources being used.
There are two basic categories of amino acids: Essential Amino Acids (horses can’t make these, so they need to be provided in feed) and Nonessential Amino Acids (horses naturally make enough of these). In order to fuel, repair, and recover muscle, equine diets must optimally contain a superior amino acid profile, including all 10 of the essential amino acids. The three most Limiting Essential Amino Acids are Lysine, Methionine, and Threonine. This is where Nutrena horse feed stands out because unlike some other brands, our Premium feeds guarantee these amino acids.

What role does fiber play in my horse’s diet?

The main source of fiber in a horse’s diet is their roughage or hay source. The secondary source of fiber in a horse’s diet is what is present in any supplemental grain sources. Let’s breakdown what fiber is:
Fiber is a measure of the plant cell wall, or the structural portions that give the plant support.
Main components of fiber are the digestible cellulose and hemicellulose, and the indigestible lignin.
As a crop of hay matures, the lignin content increases and the cellulose and hemicellulose decrease.
A horse consuming 1-1.5% of its body weight per day in quality roughage sources will meet its fiber needs.
Because fiber is such a huge part of your horse’s healthy diet, it is essential that it is present in nearly everything they consume. With manufactured feed we are able to control the amount of fiber in the ration by using some specific ingredients.  Using alfalfa/legume products can help to add protein, energy and calcium to the feed, while grass products can help add protein and fiber. Some of the most common sources of fiber in horse feeds are:
Alfalfa Meal
Dehydrated Alfalfa
Suncured alfalfa
Coastal Bermuda Grass
Ground Grass
Ground Soybean Hay

What role does fat play in my horse’s diet?

In regard to human nutrition, “fat” is often considered a bad word, and low-fat diets are popular. But we should remember that in people, some fats are necessary and healthy. This is equally true for horses: fats play a very important role in horse feeds and nutrition.
There are many reasons to feed horses added fat. The best reason for using added fat is for an energy (calorie) source. The primary purpose for grain feeding is to provide energy for maintenance, performance, growth and reproduction.  Because fat contains more than twice the calorie content of starch, and horses digest and utilize fat well, higher fat horse feeds offer an excellent opportunity to increase calorie intake without greatly increasing the quantity of feed. Other reasons for adding fat to a feed ration include improved endurance, heat tolerance, hair coat and attitude.
Adding supplementary fat in your horse’s diet is a great way to provide concentrated calories as well as some other functional benefits to your horse. Omega-3 and -6 fatty acids play important roles in:
Immune system regulation
Cell membrane stability
Development and maintenance of the central nervous system
Oxygen transfer
Specifically, omega-6 fatty acids are used by the body to make pro-inflammatory mediators for the immune system, while omega-3 fatty acids are converted to less inflammatory products. Because omega-3 fatty acids compete against omega-6 fatty acids to produce these mediators, higher levels of omega-3 can offset pro-inflammatory responses and are generally considered to have anti-inflammatory properties.

What role does starch and sugar play in my horse’s diet?

Non-structural carbohydrates (NSC), which include sugars and starches, are useful nutrients because they can be broken down and absorbed in the small intestine and stored as glycogen in the muscles and liver. This means they can be accumulated and readily mobilized to provide energy.
Starches and sugars are required for energy and glycogen repletion. However, overloading the digestive system with NSC can result in metabolic disturbances, which may lead to problems such as colic, laminitis (founder), obesity, or developmental orthopedic disease.
Because performance horses require sustained energy, low-carbohydrate diets are unsuitable. However, controlling starch and sugar intake can be beneficial depending on age, breed, activity, metabolic conditions and physical state. Nutrena’s nutrient-focused approach allows horse owners to provide a controlled glycemic response while maintaining appropriate levels of starches and sugars.
When comparing starch intake for horses, it is important to factor in the recommended feeding rate.
% of Starch * Feeding Rate (in pounds) * 454 grams/pound = Grams starch/meal

How do you calculate % NSC?

NSC stands for ‘non-structural carbohydrates’ and is typically the combination of starch and sugar. Horses with metabolic concerns, such as Cushing’s disease, laminitis or Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy (PSSM) require reduced levels of NSC to support their activity levels. Fructan is also included in NSC, but is typically found in forage products, such as grass or hay. Starches and sugars are broken down in the small intestine. Sugars and some starches are digested rapidly, while other starches may digest more slowly because of the plant’s structure they are derived from. Because horses cannot tolerate large intakes of NSC in one meal, they must be controlled in the diet.
NSC levels in feeds can be found in a variety of locations, on manufacturer websites, brochures and listed on feed tags and bags. Regulated NSC (dietary starch and sugar) values are often listed on feed tags. Feed tags are approved by individual states and most follow recommendations given by AAFCO (American Association of Feed Control Officials). On most state feed tags, where the feed does not contain cool season grass, NSCs are listed individually as dietary starch and sugar. These dietary starch and sugar guarantees are generally required if the bag or marketing material makes any reference to these nutrients.

We assure you that Cargill meets all regulatory requirements for its production of animal feed in the United States. Accordingly, we do not expect any of the raw materials that we use in our animal feed products to be of concern.

How do I switch my pet from his current diet to a Nutrena pet food product?

We recommend a slow transition from your current product to our diets. While diets may appear similar from the label, they may contain very different sources of nutrients that your pet will need to adapt slowly to.
It is recommended to transition diets over a 1 week period starting with ¾ of the daily amount of your previous diet and ¼ of the daily recommended amount of your selected new product. Change these amounts every 2 days by ¼ of the daily allotment until you fully convert to your new product completely on day 7.
As with all foods, the recommended amounts listed on your new packaging should be adjusted based on your individual pet to maintain a desirable body condition.

I see different things about “grains” for pets. Are grains bad?

Grains are not “bad” for your pet. Some individual animals can have food allergies or sensitivity which may affect how they respond to specific grains. In the Loyall Life lineup of products, you will find selections of different grain sources that will help you select what is right for your companion.
Grains deliver starch and specific fatty acids and fiber to the diet that is important in the overall nutrition package of the diet. It is important that products are “cooked” correctly to get the most out of them. You wouldn’t eat corn or rice without cooking it, but you have probably been served corn or rice that has been on the stove too long. You know that cooking can be too much…or too little.
Our “Opti-Cook” process was developed to ensure that grains and other ingredients are cooked correctly to help provide a diet for your friend.

What are prebiotics, and what are they for?
