Item Information

  • Alfalfa forage is low in sugar, moderately high in protein, high in calories and digestible fiber

Guaranteed Analysis:
Crude Protein (min.) 16%
Crude Fat (min.) 1.5%
Crude Fiber (max.) 30%

Feeding Instructions:
On average most horses comfortably consume 2% of their body weight in dry forage per day. This equates to 20 lb. of dry forage per day for a 1000 lb. horse. Standlee recommends that you weigh the amount of forage provided to each horse to ensure you are feeding the proper amount. Standlee also recommends that pelleted and cubed forage not be the sole source of forage since feeding some long-stem forage (hay) may help eliminate boredom and prevent stall vices. Feed Standlee Premium Western Forage at a minimum rate of 1.5% of body weight per day. Gradually replace existing hay with Standlee Premium Western Forage over a 7-10 day period. Replace existing hay on a 1 to 1 basis with Standlee Premium Western Forage. Standlee Premium Western Forage is recommended to be fed wet, soaked in water for 30 minutes or until properly softened, for horses that have dental problems or for horses that aggressively consume their feed. Never feed moldy or insect infested forage to horses. Always provide free-access to fresh, clean water. If you have questions, please contact the nutritionists at Standlee Premium Western Forage, or consult with your veterinarian.

I have read conflicting information about Alfalfa for donkeys. Is this product good for Donkeys? if not what do you recommend

Asked by: becca8
Thank you for you question. The key to successful donkey nutrition is to find high-fiber forages of low nutritional value. An ideal choice is clean straw, which in many ways is the most similar choice to feeds donkeys would find in their native environments. Another ideal choice is a grass forage, such as the Timothy Grass compressed bales and/or pellets. This a low protein forage, that donkeys do very well on as well. You can always combine the two products to find the ideal feed for your donkey. Thank you

After soaking 30 minutes the pellets swelled and softened a bit, but had a hard core and did not disintegrate like the alfalfa cubes do. Is that as much softening as I can expect? I am feeding them to an elderly horse who can eat grass but not hay.

Asked by: ValF
Thank you for your inquiry. In most instances, the pellets will fully break apart. However, there are times when the forage used is more dense and this will keep the pellets together in pellet form longer. If the forage is denser, it will hold the compression better, therefore it will not expand as expected. Thank you

should you always soak these pellets before feeding

Asked by: sam56
Thank you for your question. Standlee Premium Western Forage does recommend that the pellets be soaked for several reasons, but one important reason is that most people are not aware that their horse is prone to choke until it chokes.

I have a powdered suppliment that's a combination of all my horses needs in it. Can I use this as a way to give my horse her suppliments without the worry of over feeding any ingredients?

Asked by: Cpenny
Thank you for your inquiry. The soaked Alfalfa pellets are a great way to add powdered supplements to your horses diet. Using a small amount of the pellets (up to a pound) isn't going to cause an overfeeding issue. Please let us know if you have further questions.
