Baileys Alfalfa Plus Oil — High-Fibre, High-Energy Feed for Horses & Ponies

🌾 High-Fibre Forage • Extra Oil for Slow-Release Energy • Low Starch

Baileys Alfalfa Plus Oil is a premium high-fibre feed made from pure high-temperature dried and chopped UK alfalfa coated generously with soya oil. The added oil brings the overall oil content up to around 11.5 %, supplying slow-release digestible calories similar to some conditioning or competition feeds — ideal for horses that need extra energy without high starch.

✅ Key Benefits

✅ High-fibre forage base — supports chewing, healthy digestion and sustained energy.
✅ Increased oil content (11.5 %) — provides extra calories in a gentle, slow-release form for condition and energy.
✅ Low starch & no added sugar/molasses — suitable for horses on controlled diets or prone to metabolic issues.
✅ Supports topline & muscle condition — quality protein and oil help maintain condition and muscle tone.
✅ Good as a partial forage replacement — especially where hay quality is poor or turnout is limited.
