Horse Eating
Caring for horses takes time and patience. It helps to keep up to date on what can help?you cut back on time and effort and at the same time, still provide the proper care and maintenance to keep your horse healthy.
Pellet feed for horses is an alternative to feeding your horses hay. It is known to have several benefits:
?Pellet feed is much easier to measure and handle. You can save time and effort when feeding horses. You can ration what you feed your horse much more accurately. This lessens the chances of your horse developing hay bellies or be out of shape due to excessive graining.
?You are assured of the quality of the pellet feed. Pellet feed is scientifically formulated to provide a nutritionally balanced diet for your horse without having to provide any additional supplements.
?This healthy feeding option will lessen or avoid the chances of your horse developing founder and colic caused by hay. When you feed your horse grain and supplements, it can pick out only the ones it likes to eat. If you feed your horse pelleted feed, you eliminate chances of selective feeding because everything nutritionally advantageous is pelleted together.
?Pelleted feed is more economical in the long run. Pellets that are fed to horses in a feeding container are fully consumed; therefore there is no waste involved. Hay can be strewn around when distributing it and not everything may be consumed.
?Pellets reduce the chances of catching fire and spreading in your home or barn. Unlike hay, pellets only smolder but do not flame.
?You will not need so much storage space for pellet feed. Bales of hay require a bigger storage space while pellets can be stored in a much smaller space.
?Pellet feeds are cleaner and a lot more convenient. Horses who feed on pellets almost always completely digest all the pelleted feed before it passes as smaller amounts of manure. Cleaning up after your horse will be easier and needless to say, feeding time is more convenient and less of a chore.
?The health of a horse?s teeth plays a vital role in lengthening its lifespan. The hay in pelleted feeds is pre-chewed. A horse just needs to gum it down and it is easier to thoroughly digest. This causes less stress on the horse?s teeth, adding years to its life.
