The actual daily amount of water that most horses need to consume (at a minimum) to maintain body functions and remain properly hydrated is from a half gallon to a gallon per 100 pounds of body weight.
If your horse is thirsty while youâre doing stable chores (mucking, giving hay and water), do the stable chores first with the water that you have in your bucket. Then water your horse when youâre all done. This will save you a trip to the well because when your horse drinks it depletes the water in your bucket.
