Baileys Tasty Treats, Horse Treats – 5kg Tub

Baileys Tasty Treats – 5kg Tub

The 5kg tub is the version to keep in the feed room. It is reusable, it seals properly, and it stops a bag of treats going soft the week after you open it — which matters more than it sounds when the alternative is a folded-over paper bag on a damp yard.

Inside are the same high-fibre nuggets Baileys make throughout the Tasty Treats range: oatfeed, alfalfa meal and micronised unmolassed sugarbeet, flavoured with extracts of essential oils, analysing at 22% fibre and 7% protein. No vitamins or minerals are added, which is deliberate — treats should not quietly double-dose a horse already on a balancer.

Performance & Benefits

• Reusable, resealable 5kg tub — treats stay dry and firm to the last handful.
• 22% fibre and 7% protein, from natural fibre sources rather than cereal grain.
• No added vitamins or minerals, so they do not disturb a balanced ration.
• Extracts of essential oils give them a strong smell — useful with a suspicious horse.
• Firm, pocket-sized nuggets that hold up for carrot stretches and hand-feeding.
• The tub can be refilled from the Baileys eco refill bags.

Suitable For

• One or two horses treated regularly.
• Training rewards, groundwork and carrot stretches.
• Feed rooms where damp is a problem.
• Horses already on a balancer or fortified feed, since nothing extra is added.
• Not the cheapest way to buy in bulk — the Baileys Tasty Treats Eco Refill 4 x 5kg works out better for a yard.

Feeding

• Feed by hand or in the bucket as a reward, alongside a balanced diet.
• Baileys publish no maximum daily amount for Tasty Treats, so none is stated here.
• Close the tub after use; the seal is what keeps them firm.
• Ad-lib forage and clean, fresh water alongside.

Composition & Analysis

• Composition: oatfeed (by-product of oat milling), alfalfa meal, molasses, micronised unmolassed sugarbeet, flavours of essential oils.
• Typical analysis: protein 7%, oil 2.5%, fibre 22%, ash 6%, starch 8%, sugar 7%.
• 5kg reusable plastic tub. Baileys also make a 5kg eco refill bag and a 1kg paper bag.
• Baileys publish no digestible energy figure for Tasty Treats.
• Molasses is the third ingredient, and at 8% starch and 7% sugar these are moderate rather than genuinely low-sugar treats.
