Alfa-Beet Fuels Reindeer this Christmas!

Dengie Alfa-Beet Mash isn’t just for horses, it’s a versatile, nutritious feed suitable for a wide variety of other animals, including reindeer! The resident reindeer at Maldon Promenade Zoo, located just around the corner from Dengie HQ, love their Alfa-Beet dinner which provides them with a naturally high fibre diet which is low in sugar and starch, supporting digestive health.

“At Maldon Promenade Zoo we’ve used a variety of Dengie products over the years and they’ve proved invaluable across many different species” explains James Williams, Zoo Director. “The quality and consistency of the feeds really shine through, and it’s clear to see just how much the animals enjoy their Dengie diets. Our reindeer are especially enthusiastic, Alfa-Beet Mash is always a firm favourite and they never fail to come trotting over at feed time!”

Dengie Alfa-Beet is the perfect fuel for busy reindeer this Christmas, providing plenty of slow-release energy, ideal for maintaining stamina and power thanks to its two ingredients: alfalfa and unmolassed sugar beet. These highly digestible fibre sources help sustained performance without relying on cereals or high starch formulations. Because Alfa-Beet is soaked into a soft, easy to chew mash before feeding, it also provides an excellent way to help keep hard working reindeer hydrated.
