Just wanted to hear what brands folk use and why! I'm gradually changing my lot from a mainly alfalfa diet to predominantly grass, as it just makes more sense. 3 are good doers - dressage cobs and a native x tb sports pony, one is a TB who gets about 10 times more of everything!
I've recently started using Emerald Green grass nuts - seem great and pleased to hear they're bringing out a grass chop in the summer. But in the meantime wondering what other brands are out there!
All mine are barefoot and very healthy - great Rock crunching hooves so no worries there. But I've been warned off the likes of Readigrass and Graze on by barefoot types because they're rye grass based and therefore high sugar and not good for bare feet. But looking at the nutritional breakdown compared to Alfa A unmollassed which I use currently, doesn't seem to be much difference!
Any thoughts? I LOVE the smell of Readigrass but I don't think I should base diets on that
I'd like to get them on grass chop as they've got nothing in the field at the moment apart from hay.
