Thoroughbreds

The Thoroughbred types respond well to combining one of our lucerne products and a balancer with either our Blue or Red Bag Grass Pellets. The Red Bag Grass Pellets, made from pure spring grass, are particularly indicated where horses are in hard work and for youngstock.

Lucie Nuts/Lucie Pellets

DE MJ/kg 9.7 - Net Weight: 20kg - Presentation: 10-12mm dia. pellets

The most economical and versatile way to feed lucerne. More choice than ever! We can now offer LuciePellets. This is the same high quality lucerne that goes into our LucieNuts, but the pellets are smaller at 6mm instead of 10-12mm of the Nuts.
If you prefer to use dry feeds this may be more appropriate. They also fit better into feed balls and are a little less expensive.
However, even if you may find feeding dry more convenient, it is better to feed at least well dampened and best to feed soaked - after all grazing is around 70% or more water

The Nuts are fatter than many pellets, with a coarser grist. Soaked, they form a fine chop. In small amounts, they can be mixed into plenty of soaked, unmolassed beet pulp. Soaked with beet pulp, they make a complete feed to replace hay for horses sensitive to dust. Elderly horses find this easy to eat. Safe for laminitics. A handful can be scattered around the stable or paddock to extend eating time and relieve boredom. Will provide muscle and top line without alteration to temperament.

Typical Analysis: Crude Protein 18%, Crude Fibre 28%, Oil 3.5%, Ash 9.7%.

PuraBeet

Horses that do well at grass in the summer but drop off when stabled or in the winter thrive on grass nuts.

Use with confidence knowing that you are feeding only grass. The pellets are small enough for feeding balls.

Red Bag Grass Pellets

DE MJ/kg 11 - Net Weight: 20kg - Presentation: 6mm dia. pellets

Providing all the goodness of spring grass and an overall energy level more than 10% greater than oats, they are the feed of choice for high performance horses, racing, eventing, jumping or breeding high value foals early in the year.
