Equi-Feeds Shandy Chaff 20kg

Equi-Feeds Shandy Chaff 20kg – High-Fibre Horse Chaff

Equi-Feeds Shandy Chaff is a dust-extracted, high-fibre feed designed to be fed alongside concentrates as part of a fibre-rich feeding programme.

Fibre is an essential part of a horse's diet, supporting normal digestive function while also satisfying the horse's natural need to spend time chewing. Equi-Chaff provides a convenient way to increase fibre intake and can be mixed with concentrate feed to create a more fibre-focused ration.

The dust-extracted formulation makes Equi-Chaff a practical alternative to conventional baled forage for horses where reducing airborne dust is desirable.

Feeding Information

Feed Equi-Feeds Shandy Chaff according to your horse's individual nutritional requirements and the manufacturer's feeding recommendations.

It can be mixed with concentrate feed to increase the fibre content of the meal and encourage slower consumption.

Forage such as good-quality hay or pasture remains an important component of most horses' diets. When replacing or reducing conventional forage, the horse's complete ration should be assessed to ensure adequate fibre and nutritional intake.

Introduce changes to the diet gradually and always provide fresh, clean drinking water.
