Specialised Mixtures
We offer two grades of pony paddock mixture, the standard Horse & Pony and the Horse & Pony Plus.
The addition of the smooth stalk meadow grass is for use on more stress-prone sites to ensure that there is grazing all year round. Both mixes are designed specifically for horse and pony grazing and do not contain any high-sugar grasses which can increase the risk of laminitis. If left, a modest hay cut could also be taken.
