Currently madam gets her equimins advance complete and salt in a small amount of Countrywide Natural Fibre chaff twice a day.
It's a plain oat straw/grass mix with mint but nothing else added. And now CW have gone out of business and I'm down to my last bag of it I'm looking at alternatives but there aren't any other plain chaffs.
Lots marketed as such but not when you look at the ingredients- soya oil or limestone or cinnamon and so on all added in. (She won't eat honeychop plain chopped straw or agrobs leichtgenuss, I've tried!)
I'm not keen on a pure grass chaff (she is such a good doer and treated like an ems pony) but wondered about speedibeet as an alternative? Or because she only gets a handful is grass chaff not such a problem?
I've contacted just feeds to ask about sugar/starch/de levels in their just chaff as that should do the trick but the it won't be overly easy to get hold of so trying to think of something fairly easily obtainable too.
