High-quality upgrading of the roughage ration
For upgrading the roughage ration and for feeding horses with dental problems
The Glyx-Wiese senior fiber also gives horses a needs-based supply of roughage that can no longer absorb longer fibers. The chopped structure facilitates the intake of roughage with the same saliva formation, which means that the total amount can be increased considerably. This is particularly recommended if horses can no longer take in enough hay due to jaw or dental problems. The senior fiber can be fed dry or soaked in water. Thanks to the gentle manufacturing process, the senior fiber is dust-free.
Feeding recommendation:
As an alternative to basic feed: 1.2-1.5 kg per 100 kg body weight and day
To upgrade the basic forage: adjust the amount to the basic forage supply
1 kg of senior fiber replaces 1 kg of hay. Feed slowly.
In order to cover the necessary roughage requirements for horses with tooth or chewing problems, 1.2-1.5 kg per 100 kg body weight of senior fiber should be fed daily, so that weight loss can be counteracted. Senior fiber is suitable as an alternative to roughage or for upgrading hay or haylage and as a concentrated feed substitute for horses that are supposed to get little or no grain. For large horses, positive effects on digestion and nutritional status can be determined from as little as 2 kg per day.
