FAQ

Why bruised rather than crushed?

Bruising the oats is less likely to result in significant nutrient losses over time and creates less dust than crushing, making it a better option for both nutrition and respiratory health.

Do I need to feed a balancer alongside them?

Yes — oats alone do not provide a balanced diet. Always feed alongside a complementary feed or balancer formulated to provide the vitamins, minerals, and protein your horse needs.

Are they suitable for all horses?

Oats are a high-starch feed and are best suited to horses in work with higher energy requirements. For horses prone to excitability or digestive sensitivity, lower-starch alternatives may be more appropriate.
