Cereal grain free mash

[racebuddy]

I have a 6 year old connie who was fed top spec but after he’s had a reaction and some sent him loopy , wanting to feed a mash that’s none heating , was thinking Rowen and berry fibre mash , tried thunderbrooks but hates it ???‍?‍

Better Beet (bluegrasshorsefeed.com)

I use this. He doesn't love it ecstatically but he mostly eats it. I use it just to get powdered progressive earth balancer into him.

Agrobs mashes are cereal free too.

The thing with all the mashes I’ve looked at is they contain fillers like oat by products, GM soya hulls, molasses, wheat feed and trying to find something that has none of these in is nigh on impossible. I’m using Top Spec linseed mash at the moment as my Connie was losing weight but it’s made him even more grumpy than usual and if I’m honest a bit footy so once it’s gone he’s going back onto plain meadow grass nuts, pure linseed and pea protein. I do like the Rowan Barbary but again it’s full of fillers and they both hated the Agrobs.

Edit to add on initial look the Bluegrass looks ok.

I’ve tried him Dodson and horrell winter mash for now until we know what he is allergic too , may or may not be hard feed ?‍?‍?‍

I use Simple Systems Sainfoin Pellets as a mash, they seem to find it very palatable, and they do one with higher protein, if that's a consideration.

Grassnuts can be made into a mash

Are you trying to help him gain condition or is it just as a token feed? You can always go with unmolassed sugarbeet and /or grass nuts (like Lindylouanne) and if you're wanting something more conditioning add micronised linseed. Otherwise Copra is always worth a look but some horses can be fussy with it.

Definitely dodnt need condition he could live off fresh air if wasn’t competing until we get his allergy resutls back we not sure what he is allergic too

If he doesn’t need condition, does he need a feed?
