ATTENTION HORSE OWNERS!!

If you are currently feeding alfalfa cubes to your horse(s), please look on the bag to see where they are produced. If in Colorado, please stop feeding them for now. There have been a number of suspected cases of botulism in several different states that at this point are connected by the same feed source…alfalfa cubes produced in Colorado. We don’t yet know the brand (that info has not been released yet), but as soon as that is known I will forward that on. This is likely just an issue with one batch of cubes that was widely distributed.

The baling process sometimes catches small animals such as mice and rats that then get processed into the hay or cube. Their decaying carcass contains the bacteria that causes botulism when consumed by the horse.

For more information on botulism and its symptoms, please go to

If you think your horse is showing any symptoms, please call your Veterinarian immediately.
