Forage is the most important component of a horse’s diet and should be fed at a rate of 1.5-2.5% of a horse’s body weight. Gradually replace existing hay with Standlee over a seven to fourteen (7-14) day period.
For increased hydration, aggressive eaters, or horses with dental issues, cubes are recommended to be fed wet, soaked in water (2 parts water to 1 part pellets) for 30 min. or until properly softened. Standlee recommends that cubed forage is not the sole source of forage for horses since feeding some long-stem forage may help eliminate boredom and prevent stall vices.
If you have questions, contact the nutritionists at Standlee or consult your veterinarian.
NEVER FEED MOLDY OR INSECT INFESTED FORAGE TO ANIMALS.
