🐴Thank you so much to Fiber Fresh for your sponsorship

It has been scientifically proven that, due to the advanced proprietary processing techniques, Fiber Fresh feeds have superior digestible energy and protein and amino acid digestibility, than traditional dried forms of forage and is the most effective and beneficial forage for your horse.
Feeding your horse fibre is always the safest and healthiest option. However, until now fibre sources, such as sun-dried hays and chaffs, lacked the energy levels to deliver winning performances. Valuable nutrients were lost through wilting and storage and in many other fibre products, such as pelleted lucerne and sugar beet, processing and packaging advances have not been sufficient to adequately retain vital energy and nutrients. But now, with the development of Fiber Fresh has tipped ‘s unique fermentation process, there is now a safe fibre feed that provides superior energy levels and unparalleled benefits.
