Simple System Timothy Chop – 15kg High Fibre Low Sugar Grass Chop
£20.75
Simple System Timothy Chop – 15kg
Timothy Chop is nothing but mature Timothy grass, chopped. Cutting late is the whole technique: the later the harvest, the more the sugar drops and the fibre rises, which is why this is Simple System's recommendation when a horse needs a grass chop but cannot have the sugar that usually comes with one.
It is free from straw — worth saying, because straw is the standard way of cheapening a chaff and adding indigestible bulk. Here the low calorie count comes from the maturity of the grass rather than from filler, so a horse gets genuine forage while eating something it can have plenty of.
Performance & Benefits
- 100% mature Timothy grass, harvested late for naturally low sugars.
- Superior high fibre content, supporting gut function and chewing time.
- Low in protein and sugar, helping manage weight and metabolic concerns.
- Free from straw, additives, cereals, molasses and soya.
- Provides a low-energy bulk fibre option for balanced feeding.
- Can be used as a hay replacer, or to complement existing forage.
- Simple System's recommended grass chop where a lower sugar option is needed.
Suitable For
- Horses and ponies with metabolic issues.
- Bulking out a small hard feed.
- Horses on box rest, needing chew time without energy.
- Use as a partial or full hay replacer.
Feeding
- Introduce gradually over a week, as with any new feed.
- Feed dampened for best results.
- Use up to 1kg per 100kg bodyweight daily — 5kg per day for a 500kg horse.
- Can be mixed in with hay, or offered alongside, to prolong a hay supply.
