Frequently asked questions

What feed does my horse need?
The right feed for your horse depends on their workload, age, breed, condition, and health. Most horses' nutritional needs are largely met by good quality forage (hay or haylage), which should always be the foundation of the diet. Hard feed such as balancers, cubes, or mixes may be needed for horses in work or those who struggle to maintain weight. A feed advisor at your local equestrian feed shop can help you put together an appropriate diet plan.
How much feed does a horse eat per day?
A horse should consume roughly 1.5% to 2.5% of its bodyweight in dry matter per day. For a 500kg horse, that is around 7.5 to 12.5kg of feed per day, the majority of which should be forage. Hard feed quantities vary significantly depending on the horse's energy requirements and the feed's nutrient density. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines and consult a nutritionist or your local feed shop for personalised advice.
What is the difference between hard feed and forage?
Forage refers to fibrous plant material such as hay, haylage, grass, or chaff — it forms the bulk of a horse's diet and supports healthy gut function. Hard feed (also called concentrate feed) includes balancers, cubes, mixes, and cereals, and is used to top up energy or nutrients that forage alone does not provide. Most leisure horses in light work can thrive on forage-only diets with a vitamin and mineral balancer.
Do equestrian feed shops in Carlisle deliver?
Many equestrian feed and supply shops offer local delivery, particularly for bulk orders of hay, haylage, bedding, or bagged feed. Delivery areas and minimum order values vary between suppliers. Check individual shop profiles on The Digital Yard or contact them directly to confirm delivery options for your location in Carlisle.
