I got 2 Miniature horses 2.5 weeks ago. A mare and her (now 9 month old) filly. The mare is a little underweight, though, and doesn't seem to be gaining weight anymore. She gained enough for her ribs to fill in, but then she stopped gaining and her spine is still sticking up.
I'm working them up to being out grazing either all day or all night (probably night since the mare is black), and today they will be out for 6 hours. They also get 2-3 flakes of hay per day (80% grass 20% alfalfa), and grain (14% protein, 8 cups per day for the mare, and 3 per day for the filly).
