BULK BUY TREATS

[AnnaPK]

£10 for a 1.5k bag of teats!?!?!?!? I know you can get some in bulk allot cheaper from elsewhere.
what can i get from the mole bulk buy feed store that resembles a treat please!?!?!?!? Looking to buy about 20kg?

 

[saddlesore]

Thunderbrooks (I know ) hay cobs come in big bags and can be fed as treats

 

[TheMule]

Mine just get pony nuts- easy to fit in a pocket, they are very content, my wallet is very content!

 

[spottypony90]

I’m not sure if they sell them at Mole but Omega Equine do big bags of treats which aren’t too expensive and so do Baileys, both which you can get online. Another good place is Decathlon - they are cheap and they break in half so last a long time. My horses love the banana ones.

I think Balies is th e most cost efficient i have found other than equerry!

I was using the Equerry minty treats which are great value.

Switched to these when pony started turning herself inside out for the minty ones and getting SILLY.

I just buy a bag of spillers high fibre nuts they get a few sprinkled in there feed and I use them as treats a bag lasts me months I think they are about £12

 

[rabatsa]

I buy a sack of grass nuts and use as treats when needed.

I cant get equerry because postage is too much! Are there any flavoured ones in Balies?

From where? X

The Baileys ones I use are the nuggets intended to be a feed (eg hay replacer) so I guess they are essentially a giant pony nut

yes those are the cheapest i can find. There isnt an equerry store near me so postage would cost allot! I love a minty treat So it is just a shame baliyes dont have any flavoured ones!

Please be careful feeding grass nuts and the hay cobs as treats they swell up so much so I really wouldn't want to feed loads, I'm sure Arabi got an impaction colic after eating them as treats hence why I don't buy them anymore unless I was going to soak them.

Next door as they make them (Northern Crop Driers)

Grass has been mown and trailered in for several weeks now so some should be going out to shops.

I feed individual nuts not handfuls so there is almost zero risk of this.

My horses just get ginger biscuits. About a quarter of a biscuit as a treat. Costs about 2p per treat. Sometimes digestives, or rich tea. They don't seem to mind which.

 

[The Fuzzy Furry]

I'm appalling then... mine get either: a pony nut, a piece of carrot, a sugar free polo, what ever is to hand.

Friend costed up a pack of treats against polos, not by weight but by number. Polo's came out far cheaper.

 

[Carrottom]

I use high fibre nuts. I'm thinking of changing to Wynstay own brand horse snd pony nuts as they are a lot cheaper.

Equerry Minty Treats - 20kg sack is about £18. They smell lovely, too.

ETA: I am sure your local feed supplier could order these in for you? Mine did.

How very civilised I hope they get a cup of tea with those

I think I would end up eating those myself.

I drink the tea (they sometimes share). They get one quarter of the biscuit and I get the rest

Probably not, sorry I was thinking more of independent shops and similar.

 

[Pinkvboots]

I certainly can't resist tea and biscuits I might have to see if mine will eat them they tend to spit out human offerings though like it's poison

 

[JackFrost]

Mine are getting water melon pieces this summer. Not the cheapest, I'm sure, but they love them.

 

[Nasicus]

Another Baileys fibre nugget treater here! Bag lasts absolutely ages as I use it purely for treats/rewards/reinforcement.

 

[equinerebel]

I use pony nuts in a treat ball during the winter. For the rest of the year she gets whatever is cheapest/polos/ginger nuts

 

[Fjord]

Yep, Baileys fibre plus nuggets here too. Cheap, reasonably low sugar and always scoffed down.
