To transition your horse to freedom feeding, start by using the bag as a supplemental feeder filled with low calorie, high fiber forage in addition to the horse’s normal ration. This will help to keep your horse from being frustrated while learning to use the hay net. Never let the nets go empty. As your horse learns to use the Freedom Feeder, reduce the amount of feed on the ground or in their old feeder. Over time, your horse will prefer grazing from the bag. 🐴
A common question we recieve is how can I slow feed my easy keeper so they don't become overweight? Listen to our founder Melissa Auman explain how you can tailor your slow feeding regiment to work for both hard and easy keepers!
Cooler weather will be here before you know it ❄️ be prepared by talking your veterinarian about your horses body score. This will help guide the type of forage and supplementental feed you give throughout the winter to keep your horse feeling it's best!

🌙🐴 Horses are awake and moving virtually all the time. Mature horses will sleep up to two hours per day, broken into short periods. These 15 to 20-minute naps are intermittent throughout the day and night. In other words, horses do not sleep for any length of time like other animals do. Being prey animals, horses’ sleep must be taken in frequent breaks of short duration, ideally in a group situation where some take turns resting while others remain alert for dangers.
And here’s why they need to have forage (hay and/or pasture) available all of the time, day and night: Horses are trickle feeders, designed to graze continuously to keep the digestive system functioning normally, thereby preventing ulcers and colic. Feeding them in sync with their natural instincts and physiology requires that they have forage available any time they want it. 24/7.
The way you can determine how much hay to feed at night is to make certain that there is some hay left over in the morning. If your horse runs out of hay and you wake to find him kicking and pawing, he is hungry. But more than that, he is in pain (due to the acid bathing his stomach) and he is mentally stressed. This stress can lead to a multitude of health problems and ironically, it can prevent an overweight horse from losing weight. You can ease your horse’s discomfort by giving him more hay than he could possibly eat during the night. Once he realizes that the hay supply will never run out, he will he start to self-regulate his intake and actually begin to eat less then he used to because he has calmed down, both physically and emotionally.
