Blue Mountain Hay High-Altitude Alfalfa Hay Cubes Horse Feed, 50 lbs

Blue Mountain Hay High-Altitude Alfalfa Hay Cubes

Blue Mountain Hay High-Altitude Alfalfa Hay Cubes Horse Feed offers a convenient way to add quality alfalfa forage to your horse’s feeding program. Made from alfalfa grown at high altitude, these compressed hay cubes provide the nutritional benefits of alfalfa in an easy-to-store, easy-to-portion format.

Alfalfa is naturally rich in protein, fiber, calcium, and other essential nutrients, making these cubes a useful forage option for horses with higher nutritional requirements or as a supplement to an existing feeding program. The compressed cube format can help reduce loose hay waste and makes feeding, storage, and transportation more convenient. Hay cubes may be fed dry when appropriate or soaked in water to soften them for horses that benefit from an easier-to-chew texture. Introduce dietary changes gradually and feed according to your horse’s individual nutritional needs.

Feeding Instructions:

Horse feeding cubes offer a convenient and easily measured forage, promoting overall digestive health for your animals. Soaking cubes is advised for horses with dental issues, to accommodate aggressive eaters, and to increase water intake. Soak 1-part cubes in 2-parts water until desired texture is achieved (+/- 30 minutes). Incorporating long-stem forms of Blue Mountain Hay along with cubes can prevent boredom and stable vices. Provide access to fresh water at all times. Dietary changes should be made gradually over 7 - 10 days. Immediately dispose of soiled or wet forage. Do not feed animals moldy or insect-infested forage.
