Description
The low-dust and low-allergen alfalfa cobs are an excellent substitute for roughage, especially for thin horses or horses with dental problems. DERBY does not use any cereals or molasses in its composition and relies on a high proportion of raw fibres available in the large intestine to support the digestive tract in the best possible way. Thanks to gentle drying and processing, without any binding agents, important vitamins and minerals are optimally preserved. The high, natural calcium and protein content can contribute to intact bone and muscle metabolism and support the performance of sport and leisure horses.
Feeding Recommendation:
(amount in kg/horse/day)
Bodyweight | Hay Substitute | Upgrading of Hay |
200kg | 1.8 - 2.8kg | 0.6 - 1.4kg |
400kg | 3.8 - 4.8kg | 1.8 - 2.8kg |
600kg | 5.8 - 7.8kg | 2.8 - 3.8kg |
It is recommended to give the alfalfa cobs soaked. Hand-warm water shortens the soaking time.
Additional feeding advice:
The exact quantity of chopped and gently pressed alfalfa cobs depends on the amount and quality of roughage given, as well as on the individual feed conversion type and the performance requirement of the horse.
