How to soak Grass Pellets

To reduce the risk of choke when fed as the sole feed without chopped fibre alongside and for those that struggle to chew please soak Grass Pellets prior to feeding – as a pure fibre pellet, at times the Grass Pellets can absorb lots of water and swell.

To soak our grass pellets for horses, you can use hot or cold water. Soaking time can vary according to the density of the pellets, but as a guide we would expect a 2 hour cold soak or 15 minute hot soak time. Equally the grass pellets can be left through the day or night to soak. We would suggest a 1 part product to 4 parts water soaking ratio to produce a mash, but you can add more or less water according to your horse’s preference.

Different ways of feeding Grass Pellets

To dampen the feed:

Add a small quantity ie. ½ or 1 mug of soaked Pure Grass Pellets to feed to dampen. This can be particularly useful when mixing powdered supplements into a feed. Being pure grass, they are naturally sweeter so can help with tempting fussy feeders.

Using in a treat ball:

Pure Grass Pellets are a great lower starch alternative to cereal-based cubes that can be fed in a treat ball to help reduce boredom and provide a more natural tickle feeding rate.

If using as a hay replacer:

Pure Grass Pellets are a great option as a full or partial hay replacer, particularly for horses with poor dentition as they can be soaked to a soft mash making them very easy to chew. They can be fed up to ad lib quantities if required.

Other animals:

Pure Grass Pellets can be fed to a wide variety of other animals including cattle, sheep, goats and camelids.
