Oat Chaff has been the mainstay in the feed sheds of horse owners for centuries. Whether made from oat straw, whole-crop oats, or some combination of straw and harvested grain, oat chaff has offered horses in work with a good source of energy and protein, as a grain feedstuff.
We’ve harnessed all that’s good in the oat plant by chaffing oat hay, rather than straw. Our Oaten Hay is cut from the whole oat plant before it reaches full maturity. Harvesting the crop before the seed fully develops creates a grain fee forage with an exceptional balance of fibre and protein without the starch content of grain.
Oaten Hay Chaff offers an excellent substitute for a typical grain filled oat chaff, offering all the great benefits of high protein and energy, without some of the metabolic complications associated with high grain diets.
A Balanced natural feed that can make up the bulk of a feed ration or be used as a supplement for horses on pasture.
Balanced Calcium to Phosphorous ratio of 1.1 provides an excellent source of phosphorous essential for a healthy metabolism, without inhibiting the absorption of calcium.
Excellent for Clydesdales, sport horses and horses in work
