MultiCube Teff & Lucerne Cubes – 20Kg

Our Teff and Lucerne Hay Cubes are made from 100% pure premium leafy green irrigated Lucerne and high quality Teff hay free from unwanted additives in a highly palatable 32mm high fibre cube form.

Our Teff and Lucerne Hay Cubes are a cool low sugar all round feed for horses and ponies. They are low in NSC making them perfect for horses or ponies that need a low sugar / low starch diet such as those that suffer from metabolic diseases such as Laminitis or Cushings Disease.

Due to the fine stemmed nature of Teff we have not yet been able to produce a Teff only cube. We do however also produce Compressed Bales of straight Teff Hay if required.

Hay Cubes are the ideal base for any feed ration.

Introducing Hay Cubes

• Gradually introduce soaked Hay Cubes into your horse’s diet over a 14 day period.
• Soak the hay cubes (1:1 ratio) in cold (1 hour) or warm (30 mins) water until properly softened.
• After 14 days you can reduce the water gradually to feed the hay cubes dry, or if your horse prefers, they can continue to be fed soaked.
• Offering Hay Cubes in smaller pieces as a treat allows horses and ponies to readily accept the alternative form.

Feeding Recommendations

• Always feed by weight not volume.
• Horses require a minimum of 1.5% of body weight (kg) of forage per day.
• For example 4.5kg per day for a 300kg pony or 7.5kg for a 500kg horse.
• Forage requirements depend on pasture availability, horse’s weight, age, size, condition and work level.
• Fresh drinking water should always be available.
• Consult a qualified nutritionist to develop a complete feeding plan specifically for your horse.

Storage

Like all stockfeeds, Hay Cubes must be stored in a cool, dry well ventilated area out of direct sunlight and protected from vermin.
