By using 2-3 percent bentonite, we produce a cube with a harder jacket that slices cleanly with fewer fines.
It is otherwise the same as the Bulk Alfalfa Premium Hay Cubes – Sun Cured with average protein levels of 18% and high fiber and nutrient levels
Sun-cured, baled alfalfa hay is ground, then steam processed to about 100ºF before it is pressed into dies to form the finished hay pellet.
It’s easier to make high-quality sun-cured alfalfa cubes in the western United States, with its low rainfall and humidity.
To make hay pellets, the forage plant has to grow to the proper maturity stage, then cut, dry and bale the forage into conventional bales for storage.
The forage is stored to prevent any damage or bleaching associated with exposure of the forge to sun or inclement weather.
Throughout the year, this baled forage is ground, mixed with steam, and pushed through a die with pressure to form the pellet.
Horses often eat hay cubes faster than traditional hay because the smaller, ground particles are easy to chew and swallow.
Hay cubes also do not provide any long-stem forage. However, for horses with poor teeth, soaking these pellets can still provide important fiber and nutrients.
When you feed hay, its nutrient content is not consistent. One bale might be higher in protein than another, for example.
Forage cubes, on the other hand, have consistent nutrient values, this makes it easier to track exactly what your animal is eating and ensure his specific nutrient needs are being met.
Pound for pound equivalent with hay, so no crazy math skills are needed to calculate how much you should be feeding.
