Timothy HorseHage, as its name implies, is made from timothy grass which is very similar to the famous Kentucky bluegrass of America. This grass is higher in fibre and lower in protein than many other grasses, making Timothy HorseHage particularly suitable for leisure horses and ponies, native ponies, veterans and horses and ponies that are resting, convalescing or prone to laminitis. Timothy has a completely different ‘nose’ to ryegrass, from which Ryegrass and High Fibre HorseHage are made. It has a very similar nutrient analysis to High Fibre HorseHage and is highly palatable, making it ideal for fussy feeders or simply to add variety to the diets of those already being fed HorseHage.

Dust extracted straw.

Burlybed Original is made from 100% Miscanthus. Burlybed Original is quick and easy to muck out with little wastage and is quick to rot down on the muck heap, quicker than straw and shavings. In an average 12’x12’ stable we recommend using 5 to 8 bales to set up a deep bed. Top up when necessary, often as little as half a bale per week.

High Fibre HorseHage is made from a selected mix of grasses that are high in fibre and lower in protein and energy levels. Because High Fibre HorseHage is low in energy, it is generally suitable for all riding club and Pony Club horses, native ponies, veterans and those that are resting, convalescing or prone to laminitis. The HoofKind logo denotes its suitability for horses and ponies prone to laminitis. The unique fermentation process that the grass undergoes in the production of High Fibre HorseHage keeps the sugar and starch levels considerably lower than in other forages. High Fibre HorseHage also provides an excellent fibre source for competition horses being fed high levels of concentrates.

Brand new in the Burlybed range is Burlybed Soft Extra. Made from 100% chopped wheat straw with the added extra benefit of naturally antiseptic eucalyptus and soothing aloe vera. In an average 12’x12’ stable we recommend using 4 – 6 bales to set up a bed. Top up when necessary.
