Grain                                                                 reproduced in part with permission from HappyHaflingers.com and author Haley Madden
As you probably know, a horse’s grain should be determined by their workload as well as their dietary needs.  However, most Haflingers aren’t in enough work that they need to be fed a significant amount of grain.  Pregnant and nursing mares may require more, but most Haflingers need little to no grain. 

When choosing a grain for a Haflinger, look for one with an appropriate protein content (typically 12-14%) that is low in sugar and starch.  Haflingers do not need to be supplemented in sugar or starch (and likely fat), so typically a pelleted feed will be best.
