Standlee Premium Alfalfa Timothy Cubes

Standlee Premium Alfalfa Timothy Cubes combine Alfalfa and Timothy Grass, two of the most popular forages fed to horses. This blend offers a balanced forage option that is moderate to low in protein and sugar, making it ideal for a variety of equine dietary needs. Hay cubes are formed by coarsely grinding forage and compressing it with heat and steam to ensure consistency and convenience.

Features:

  • Alfalfa Timothy Cubes support hind gut health and are highly palatable.
  • Recommended for performance and metabolic horses, growing, underweight, horses with gastric ulcers, breeding stallions, and mares in late pregnancy.
  • Cubes stimulate chewing and may slow down aggressive eaters providing efficient digestion.
  • For increased hydration and horses with dental issues, cubes are recommended to be fed wet, soaked in water (2 parts water to 1 part cubes) for 30 minutes or until properly softened.

Benefits:

While forage cubes are an excellent source of nutrition, Standlee recommends that they not be the sole forage source for horses. Feeding some long-stem forage can help eliminate boredom and prevent stall vices. For specific guidance, consult a veterinarian or Standlee nutritionists.

  • Growing horses (moderate to rapid growth)
