Does anyone feed them? if so, how? do you leave them whole or soak them?
Could they be possibly fed every so often as a treat type thing to ease boredom? As it says you can leave them whole for the horse to have a chew on.
Replies much appreciated!

Hi, Found this on internet...

All the benefits of pure lucerne, compressed into convenient 1kg (approx) blocks. Soaks to form a succulent chop within an hour. Use 5 litres of water per brix.

Can also be fed whole & dry to mimic grazing, which may reduce the tendency to chew wood. Easy & convenient to feed.
Typical Analysis: Crude Protein 18%; Crude Fibre 33%; Oil 3%; Ash 8%
 
They're brilliant! I bought some last weekend as my horse does very well on Alfalfa and can be stressy in the stable if not kept fed/occupied. He's had a long history of stomach ulcers.

I feed them dry as I found they didn't soak that well, I put it in a large Trug, and put his Graze on on top of it so he has to dig through that to get it, and being in the trug also keeps wastage to a minimum. He absolutely loves them!
