Hey, I've been having a problem with two of my Thoroughbred mares. They reside in my only barn, and I've been feeding them way too much for food, and it says they should be getting a 160% energy, but when I do a turn, they are only at 70%ish energy! They are both pregnant to an Irish Draught stallion, but my other pregnant mares aren't like this. Is it the Thoroughbred breed or a bug?

I'm worried since they don't have much weight.

There are times where a horse will benefit more from a pasture than a barn. Try moving them to a pasture and feeding them at least 100% of feed
