Dodson & Horrell KwikBeet – 20kg
Dodson & Horrell KwikBeet – 20kg
Unmolassed sugar beet pulp in flake form, ready to feed ten minutes after water goes on it rather than the overnight soak a traditional shredded beet demands. That alone changes how usable beet pulp is on a busy yard, and it removes the risk that comes with a bucket left to ferment in warm weather.
Because the molasses has been taken out, sugar sits at 5% and starch at 1% — low enough for laminitis-prone ponies, which is not true of molassed beet. What remains is highly digestible fibre at 16.5%, fermented in the hindgut to release energy slowly at an estimated 11 MJ/kg, plus a good deal of moisture, which is often the real reason people feed it.
Performance & Benefits
- High in digestible fibre at 16.5%, naturally low in sugar at 5% and starch at 1%.
- Ready to feed in ten minutes once soaked.
- Adds succulence and moisture to a dry ration.
- Molasses-free, so it suits horses and ponies prone to laminitis.
- Works as part of a forage replacer for veterans and horses that struggle to chew.
Suitable For
- Horses and ponies needing extra succulence and slow-release calories.
- Horses prone to laminitis, where molassed beet would be unsuitable.
- Veterans and horses with difficulty chewing hay or haylage.
- Adding moisture to the diet of a horse that drinks poorly.
- Not a complete feed. It supplies no meaningful vitamin or mineral load — pair it with Daily Vitamins & Minerals.
Feeding
- Weigh KwikBeet dry, before soaking.
- Add 500ml of water to every 100g and soak for ten minutes.
- Feed 100g per 100kg bodyweight per day with free access to forage.
- Do not exceed 600g per 100kg bodyweight per day in total.
- Divide into at least two to three meals a day.
Composition & Analysis
- Composition: dried unmolassed sugar beet pulp. 20kg.
- Crude protein 8.0%. Crude fibre 16.5%. Starch 1.0%. Sugar 5.0%.
- Estimated digestible energy 11 MJ/kg.
Care & Caution
- Never feed dry. Beet pulp swells as it takes up water and can cause choke or colic if fed unsoaked.
- Soak fresh for each feed. In warm weather a soaked bucket will start to ferment within hours.
