Marksway high fibre horsehage

[pottamus]

Does anyone here feed such a product successfully to a horse that has had laminitis? Is it possible to convert them over or just too much of a risk?
When I look at the stats it appears to have a similar amount of energy and sugars in it to hay...

Have you actually had your hay analysed to see what it's protein levels are... or are you guessing ? depending on when your hay was made and what type of hay it is, ie seed or meadow, the feed quality could be wildly different. The whole point of buying a product like this from Marksway, is that they have analysed the product.

My friend has a pony who has had laminitis and is a cushings sufferer. She feeds Baillie Haylage, she feeds their timothy variety. She has no problems.

The high fibre (blue packet) variety is specifially for good doers and laminitics, so you shouldn't have a problem.

I have two laminitics and have successully used both the blue and the Timothy horsehage from Marksway.They won't need much hard food with it-just a basic high fibre cube with Hifi Lite.

The blue and the purple Horsehage can safely be fed to laminitics......
