A stalkier, lower-sugar cereal hay, useful where oaten is too sweet.
Wheaten is the cereal hay you reach for when you need bulk without the sugar. It's stalkier than oaten and not quite as palatable to horses, but it's a great fit for laminitis-prone ponies, dry cows, and anyone running maintenance rations through winter.
Who this hay suits.
- Laminitic and metabolic horses (with soaking)
- Dry cattle and sheep on maintenance
- Mixing into a TMR ration
- Heavier-bodied stock that need bulk

Large square bales
Why our wheaten stands up.
Lower sugar, lower risk
Useful for ponies, donkeys and any horse that's a candidate for soaking, you start with less sugar in the bale.
Bulk economics
Per kilo, wheaten is usually the cheapest hay we sell. If you've got numbers of dry cattle to carry through winter, this is the one.
