I've never fed boiled grains as a primary diet for horses. I've fed bran mash which is a boiled bran mixture, normally with some molasses and boiled beet pulp, but only as a supplementary diet in winter or as a treat. I would imagine the grain when whole and boiled would add weight faster than a pelleted grain which uses parts of different grains. Putting weight on a horse can be a tricky thing and is normally best done with the advice and guidance of a vet. They can better evaluate why the horse is underweight as it can be from underfeeding, overworking, worms or other issues such as age. Alot of older horses get to a point where they always look thin, no matter how well they are fed or what you try.
