Horse and Pony Mixtures
We offer two grades of pony paddock mixture, the standard Horse & Pony and the Horse & Pony Plus.
Both mixes are designed specifically for grazing, but will also provide a modest crop of hay if closed up and left to grow.
These are robust, mixtures, but do not contain high-sugar content grasses, which can be associated with an increased risk of laminitis in susceptible equines. Establishment is good, and the inclusion of smooth stalk meadow grass in our horse and pony plus mix, gives it more resilience on stress-prone sites to improve year-round grazing
