The amount and kind of work your horse or pony is doing is an important factor when calculating the quantity and type of feed to give. Try to use a fibre based diet to promote a healthy digestive system and only use cereal based feeds if absolutely necessary.

Hi-Fi Molasses Free is a straight feed and although alfalfa is abundant in natural nutrients a source of broad-spectrum vitamins and minerals should be added alongside to ensure a balanced diet. Hi-Fi Molasses Free may be fed dry or dampened with water, or a soaked product such as Dengie Alfa-Beet. To use Hi-Fi Molasses Free as a partial forage replacement, replace your forage on a weight for weight basis up to 1kg per 100kgs bodyweight of the total forage fed.

Great tasting, palatable, feed, with added pellets for interest, my pony loves this as, can feed generously but without added calories he doesn’t require, so happy pony, good quality, value feed.
Verity –
Excellent, this was a life saver when my horse was very ill with laminitis. Still use now and all my horses love it
Leah –
I’ve never met a pony that is such a good doer as mine is and thankfully this never puts weight on her. She absolutely loves the varied pellets. She can be fussy with her hard feed but she wolfs this down everytime, also smells amazing! Definitely her long-term feed
