Description
Loose chaff from species-rich, late-cut Allgäu meadows is combined in meadow hay with important linseed-thistle oil. Thanks to the herbal oil, it is a dust and molasses-free hay alternative, which can also be fed soaked to horses with dental problems or allergies.
Details at a glance:
- Low in fructan and starch, can therefore also be fed to horses with metabolic problems
- Stimulates chewing activity and salivation
- Higher nutritional value than normal hay or silage
- A source of omega-3 fatty acids, silymarin from milk thistle and natural vitamin E
- For complete replacement or partial supplementation of the basic feed. Mixed with the basic feed, it extends the feeding time.
Feeding Recommendation:
As basic feed or partial replacement:
approx. 1.0 to 1.5 kg per 100 kg bodyweight/day
To upgrade the basic feed ration:
Small horse/pony | approx. 1.0 kg meadow hay to 2.0 to 4.0 kg hay |
Thoroughbred | approx. 1.5 kg meadow hay to 3.0 to 4.0 kg hay |
Warmblood | approx. 2.0 kg meadow hay to 5.0 to 6.0 kg hay |
As a digestible structure to mix in with the concentrated feed:
Mix approx. 2 to 3 "handfuls" of meadow hay into the muesli.
Example ration per day for a horse with 600kg bodyweight as a complete hay substitute:
approx. 5.5 to 8.0 kg meadow hay
- 1-litre Marstall Meadow Hay = approx. 100 grams
Feeding instructions:
Increase the quantity slowly at the beginning or mix with water if it is fed as a hay substitute. If the horse eats hastily, is nervous, old or drinks little, it is recommended to mix meadow hay generally 1:1 or 1:2 with water. Swelling is not necessary!
