Don’t let fibre fall off the radar this winter! As pastures dry up and hay becomes harder to source, maintaining fibre intake becomes even more important for your horse’s health.

Fibre is essential for:
✅ Supporting hindgut health
✅ Generating warmth from the inside out
✅ Keeping digestion moving smoothly
✅ Encouraging hydration when fed as a mash

At Barastoc, we know that not all fibre is created equal. That’s why we offer a range of fibre solutions - including mashes, complete fibre feeds, and beet-based options with high digestible energy (DE) for maximum gut support.

🐴 Quick tip: When comparing fibre feeds, look beyond the crude fibre number and focus on digestible energy. Beet-based fibres (like our Barastoc Fibre-Beet Mash) generally provide more fuel per scoop, thanks to higher soluble fibre content.

Struggling to find quality hay? You’re not alone. With hay in short supply across much of Australia, horse owners are looking for reliable, high-quality alternatives to support forage intake and gut health.

That’s where Barastoc Fibre-Beet Mash comes in.

By replacing a portion of your horse’s dry forage with Barastoc Fibre-Beet Mash, you can:
✅ Improve forage consistency
✅ Support digestive health with a gut-friendly fibre source
✅ Ensure a high-quality, palatable fibre base
✅ Help maintain condition and hydration, especially in hard-working or senior horses

Unlike some hay sources, Barastoc Fibre-Beet Mash is a standardised feed, so you know exactly what you’re getting - bag after bag, bucket after bucket.

Getting older? Feed wiser—with smaller, more frequent meals that work with your horse’s ageing digestive system.

This approach supports better digestion, improved nutrient absorption, and helps maintain condition—especially during the colder months.

Pair Barastoc Senior with a warm, fibre-rich mash like Fibre-Beet or Speedi-Beet for a comforting, senior-friendly winter ration.

Rugging keeps the cold out—but what’s fuelling your horse from within?

As horses age, their metabolism slows—making it harder to generate and hold warmth. That’s why nutrition matters just as much as rugging through winter.

Feeds high in digestible fibre, like Barastoc Senior, help support your horse’s natural heat production by feeding the gut and fuelling the body from the inside out.

Unbeetable hydration for winter feeding.

It’s easy to forget that hydration is just as important in winter as it is in summer—but when it’s cold, horses often drink less, which can lead to digestive issues and weight loss.

Soaked mashes like Speedi-Beet and Barastoc Fibre-Beet Mash are a simple, effective way to support hydration, gut health, and condition—especially for older horses or those with dental challenges.

✅ Highly digestible fibre
✅ Warm, palatable and easy to chew
✅ Low sugar & starch and gentle on the gut

Pair with Barastoc Senior for a nourishing, senior-friendly winter feed.

🌟 Congratulations to Barastoc Brand Ambassador Samantha Cesnik – you and Queen looked absolutely stunning at the trot up at 🇩🇪✨

After the Dressage, Sam shared:
"I am happy with Queen today, a few mistakes from both of us just holding us off the scores we know we are so close to! But another big atmosphere down and we are definitely getting more used to being with the big guns."

Cross Country proved tough, with an almost unheard-of stop just four fences from home. Despite that, Queen jumped brilliantly across the majority of the course. A tumble couldn’t dampen their spirits – both horse and rider are safe, sound, and taking the time to rest and regroup. 🐴💪

Huge respect to this hardworking pair and their incredible team behind the scenes. The lessons continue, and the journey rolls on! 💫
Samantha Cesnik
