Analysis
Haycobs are a natural product. Over 50 varieties of Bavarian alpine grasses and herbs are cut from in excess of 1000 acres and there will be variations in the analyses due to number of cuts per year, time of cut, weather, location of field, etc.
The Analyses shown are therefore ranges across various batches.
Crude Protein 8.4%, Crude Oil 1.9%, Crude Fibre 20.6%, DE 11.13 MJ/kg, Sugar 7.6%, Starch <2%
When feeding HayCobs dry, feed them separately, not as part of a mash or sprinkled on top of a feed. Your horse must be able to chew them thoroughly.
If your horse is prone to choke, do not feed dry. Instead, soak thoroughly to make a mash before feeding.
For veterans or horses with poor dental condition HayCobs can be pre-soaked with warm water to make a tasty mash. As a mash, it can be used as a carrier for Thunderbrook Base Mix, Daily Essentials or other supplements.
If soaking the HayCobs, we recommend that you soak them for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to make sure there are no hard centres left in the mash.
