❓ FAQs
Is Speedi-Beet suitable for laminitis-prone horses?
It is unmolassed and naturally low in sugar and starch. Always consult your vet/nutritionist and follow the current analysis on your bag.
How long can soaked Speedi-Beet stand?
Best fed fresh. In warm weather, discard uneaten mash promptly. In cool weather, cover and store short-term only.
Can I mix it with other feeds?
Yes — commonly mixed with balancers, cubes, chaffs or mashes to increase fibre and moisture intake.
What if my horse bolts feed or has poor teeth?
A soft Speedi-Beet mash is an excellent choice to slow intake and support those with dental challenges (ensure fully soaked).
