Baileys’ Fibre Range products may be fed simply as an additional source of fibre-based slow release calories and, when fed in smaller quantities (0.5 – 1kg per meal), may be added to the compound feed to encourage chewing, slow consumption and also slow the rate of passage through the digestive system. If the maximum meal size is met with mix or cube alone, Baileys Fibre Range can be fed in a separate bucket.
Ultra Grass is pure high-temperature dried chopped grass with a very light dressing of soya oil and is ideal for bringing a taste of pasture into the feed bowl. Appetising and free-flowing, Ultra Grass is rich in fibre and has a moderate energy content so is particularly suitable for horses with limited access to pasture and whose calorie requirements are significant.
The drying process ensures the grass maintains its delicious aroma and colour as well as nutrient content, which includes some natural vitamins and minerals, but, since it also still contains the naturally-occurring sugars found in fresh grass, it is not recommended for the laminitis-prone.
