Keep your horses hydrated on the road, in the barn or at competitions with Forage Solutions 3000724-623 Hydration Horse Hay Block. Drop this convenient, lightweight horse hay block of compressed high-quality grass and alfalfa hay into water to create palatable, moist hay. Alfalfa hay for horses is recommended for all horses at all life stages. Each block only weighs about 2 pounds, so they are easy to carry, feed and travel with. The stress of travel can cause many horses to struggle with proper water intake when on the road. With Hydration Hay® Horse Hay Blocks, your horse can receive consistent, quality forage and proper hydration at the same time. After numerous scientific formulations, trials and refinements, we've found a way to deliver consistent, quality nutrition in a lightweight, convenient and easy-to-feed compressed block horses just love.

wonderful for the older horse who cannot chew well

10 years ago

I've been giving this to my 32 year old horse who can no longer efficiently chew dried forage (regular hay) along with his soaked alfalfa pellets. He is gaining weight back, and his digestive troubles have eased. Be sure to soak as directed. It's quick, easy, and while it costs a bit more than conventional hay, it's worth knowing your horse is getting nutrition and hydration they need in one easy preparation.

Overpriced

I did buy this once and that was enough. Although it is more expensive than hay cubes, it takes it forever to soak up water. My horses eat hay cubes soaked in water with much more enthusiasm than the hydration hay. Also, there is a choice of hay types in hay cubes; my horses prefer alfalfa/oat hay cubes. The hydration hay is an unnecessary product looking for a market that is already supplied by regular hay cubes that are cheaper and soak up water more quickly.

Excellent product.

Excellent product. My horses love it. Given the choice between Hydration Hay and grain, they will always go to the Hydration Hay first. I got this product for a horse who was dropping wads of hay from his mouth. He can eat the Hydration hay with ease and he is gaining weight. The only drawback is, they can't keep it in stock at my Tractor Supply store and I almost always have to have it ordered online. Price could be a bit lower but if you have the horse that needs it, it is worth it. I think it would be great compact way to take hay when you travel.
