If you’re struggling to get good quality hay right now, there are excellent forage-replacers available to make sure your horse still gets the fibre they need. At Animall we’ve selected some of the best options available, all designed to support digestive health, chewing behaviour and overall well-being.
Our favourite starter choice is Dengie Grass Pellets, made from 100 % natural meadow grass that’s high in fibre and naturally sweet, helping maintain a healthy gut and keep fussy feeders interested. Next up, Simple System HayCare uses premium timothy grass fibres that mimic good quality hay, making it a great alternative when hay supplies run low.
For a quick-soak, easy-chew option, Thunderbrook Hay Flakes are rich in natural fibre and soften in just a few minutes, ideal for older horses or those with dental issues. Baileys Natural Meadow Cobs offer a blend of meadow grasses and herbs that’s low in starch and sugars, perfect as a full forage replacement. Finally, HoneyChop Lite + Healthy provides a palatable, softer chop that’s gentle on the digestive system.
