Another What Feed Question

[Joyous70]

I need some help, i popped down to our local feed merchants at the weekend to pick something up for my girl, I left empty handed and my head was spinning with all the choices!

My girl is 14.3/15hh a good weight as in not massively fat, but not skinny either, in light/med work.

She currently gets an alf alfa chaff with pellets mixed in, micronised linseed & brewers yeast, the alf alfa mix is not stocked locally and is a pain for me to get to the producer, so i was considerinig getting maybe an unmollassed chaff and maybe some pony nuts or a low cal mix so she is on a similar feed but easier to get.

I like the idea of chaff as she is quite greedy, and with the small amount of feed she gets mainly to give her the linseed and brewers yeast i thought it might bulk it out for her.

Ideas anyone?

A handful of unmolassed beet could work well, and should last for ages. you're local stockist would surely have some of that?! Fast Fibre is also a good carrier for supplements

Beet pulp would be a great carrier for the linseed and yeast, also adds calcium to her diet.

Sorry for sounding thick, but do you mean something like speedi beet?
