Which is likely to have the lower feed value, hay cut in June 2008 or late August (may even have been September) 2009?
I'm wondering which is best for a welsh cob that's currently on box rest with a touch of laminitis (has seen farrier & it's nothing major at this stage). He's getting a slice morning and night, ordinarily I'd soak it to try & reduce the sugars but at the moment that isn't a practical option! The June 08 stuff is pretty horrid, he's leaving sme of it & trying to find bits of clean bed to eat, the August/September 09 stuff isn't loads better - none of the other stabled horses will touch it - but he does eat it.
