Horse Chaff & Fibre Feed
Horse Chaff & Fibre Feed — The Foundation of a Healthy, Balanced Equine Diet.
Fibre is the cornerstone of equine nutrition. A horse's digestive system is designed to process a near-continuous supply of fibrous material — and when forage alone isn't sufficient, or when a horse needs its concentrate ration slowed down and bulked out, chaff and fibre feeds play a vital supporting role. They extend eating time, support hindgut function, reduce the risk of gastric ulcers, and help prevent the bolting of hard feed that can contribute to choke and digestive upset.
Types of Chaff & Fibre Feed
- Molassed chaff – Chopped hay or straw coated in molasses for palatability; adds fibre and slows feed intake; suitable for horses in light to moderate work but not ideal for laminitics or good doers due to the sugar content
- Unmolassed chaff – Plain chopped fibre with no added sugar; the preferred choice for laminitics, good doers, and horses on a calorie-controlled diet
- Alfalfa chaff – High in protein and calcium; a useful addition for horses in hard work, youngstock, veterans, and horses needing topline support
- Herbal & meadow grass chaff – Blended chaffs with added herbs for palatability and digestive support; popular with fussy feeders
- High-fibre cubes & nuts – Compressed fibre feeds that can be fed dry or soaked; a useful alternative to chaff for horses that need a higher-fibre, lower-starch bucket feed
