About Chestnut Horse Feed

Horses have evolved to eat a high fibre diet - hence their intestinal system is designed to process large amounts of forage ingested on an almost continual basis. However, the nutritional requirements of leisure and sport horses cannot always be met by high bulk low energy forage, such as hay, alone.

Feeding a diet high in starch (cereal) may be detrimental. Undigested starch can ferment in the hindgut causing a reduction in pH, resulting in acidosis. Fibre/cereal mixes are preferable for a high starch diet, and meet energy demands whilst helping to ensure optimum gut health. A diet high in fibre will more closely fulfil your horse’s behavioural motivation to forage.

The products in our Chestnut Range of Horse Feeds have been formulated with the expertise of our independent equine nutritionists Julie Ellis BSc(hons), MSc, MHFST and Donna Allen BSc(hons) at Equisine14. Chestnut Horse Feeds have been tested on a large range of horses and ponies, and subjected to extensive scientific palatability trials so you can be sure that our products are both nutritionally balanced and appetising.

We offer an independent nutritional advice service, with Julie Ellis available to answer any Equine Nutritional Enquiries you may have concerning our products. Please email us directly with any general enquiries that you may have regarding our Chestnut Horse Feeds.
