Emerald Green Grass Pellets – 20kg
Pure fescue grass, dried and pelleted, with no molasses and no additives of any kind. At 16% protein, 25% fibre and an estimated 11 MJ/kg it sits closer to good grass than to hay, which is what makes it useful as a partial forage replacer rather than merely a bucket filler.
Starch is very low at 1.9%, so the energy comes from fibre fermented in the hindgut rather than from grain. Sugar is 10.4%, which is worth knowing: that is a normal figure for dried grass but it is not a low-sugar feed, and a laminitic pony wants something else. Soaked, the pellets break down into a soft mash for a horse that can no longer chew hay.
<>Performance & Benefits
- 100% pure fescue grass with no molasses or additives.
- 16% protein and 25% fibre at an estimated 11 MJ/kg.
- Starch held to 1.9%, so energy comes from fibre rather than grain.
- Pelleted for compact storage and accurate measuring.
- Feed dry or soaked; soaked they make a partial hay replacer.
Suitable For
- Horses and ponies needing a reliable, additive-free fibre source.
- Yards topping up or partially replacing hay and haylage.
- Horses in light to moderate work on a straightforward fibre feed.
- Veterans that struggle to chew long-stem forage.
- At 10.4% sugar this is not a laminitic feed — Meadow Magic Pellets are lower in sugar and starch.
Feeding
- Feed according to bodyweight and workload alongside plenty of forage.
- To use as a partial forage replacer, soak until the pellets break down fully.
- Introduce gradually over seven to ten days.
- Always ensure free access to clean, fresh water.
