Industrial Srength Barrel Racer Posts: 7268	Okay, so I am in the process of switching to Renew Gold since my non-pellet eating horse is leased out, I thought I would try it with my mare. You are only supposed to feed 1 pound a day. So I take some of it in the house and tried to weigh it with my bathroom scale. Trying several times, I came up with a pound being about a HALF of a SMALL coffee can. Is that right? It just seems like such a small amount per horse, per day.

Industrial Srength Barrel Racer Posts: 7268	I guess my post must be confusing. What I am getting at, is how much is a pound of pellets? Does a half of a small coffee can sound like a pound's worth? I don't have a kitchen scale, so I weighed myself, then tried various amounts of grain until I got a pound more to show on the scale. A half a small coffee can a day per horse just doesn't seem like enough.
