feeding help...again!

[TarantuLove]

Well I put my boy on Winergy, but he's turned into a bit of a loony tune out hacking

He went cuckoo on alfabeet too though so I think its alfalfa rather than the feed itself!

I need to have him on a high fibre no cereal diet.
No alfalfa please!
Any help?

Hi Fibre Cubes and Hi Fi?

 

[TGM]

There is alfalfa in HiFi - it is alfalfa and straw mixed!

From memory, I think the Spillers High Fibre Cubes are alfalfa free - but OP would need to check with Spillers. If she needs something a little more calorific than High Fibre Cubes but still low starch then she could look at look at something like Spillers Response Slow Release Cubes, but again she would have to contact Spillers to check whether there is alfalfa in them, as they don't publish the ingredients on the website.

My horse cant have alfalfa either.

I feed him mollychaff and fast fibre with blue bag, high fibre horsehage and he is doing brilliantly. He is back to his usual self and much happier and contented.

What about Speedibeet?

Also beware of alfalfa hiding in biotin, feed balancers and horse treats etc and even in Cortaflex and H&P cubes. I was amazed at how many feeds/supplements contain it.
