A new generation of high fibre chaff for horses and ponies at risk from laminitis. Contains very low levels of cereal starch and sugar.
Products Beneficts:
World-wide research into laminitis recommends high fibre diets with low levels of soluble carbohydrates and fructans. Trials have also shown that short chop forages take longer to eat than hay. Therefore ponies on a low calorie feed regime will benefit from the extended eating time associated with this feed.

Hiappy Hoof is a complementary feed for horses formulated to be fed in addition to forage at a daily feeding rate of 600 g per 100 kg bodyweight. Clean fresh water should be available at all times. Should only be fed to the target species.
High Fibre Cubes can be used as:
The following table is intended as a guide. Horses have individual requirements that are influenced by many factors including age, workload, weather and quality of grazing/forage:
| Aprox weight (Kg) | If fed with forage Kg/día | If fed as complete feed kg/día |
| 200-250 | 1.0-1.5 | 4.0 - 5.0 |
| 300-350 | 1.5-2.0 | 6.0 - 7.0 |
| 400-450 | 2.0-2.5 | 8.0 - 9.0 |
| 500-550 | 2.5-3.0 | 10.0 - 11.0 |
| 600-650 | 3.5-3.5 | 12.0 - 13.0 |
It is advisable to split the daily amount into small equal meals, not more than 2 Kg of hard feed per meal. If using as a complete feed offer at least four feeds per day.
Example diets:
|
250kg pony in light work as a replacement for compound feed
|
|
500kg horse as a replacement for compound feed
|
|
350kg pony unable to eat grass or hay
