Horse Feed & Supplement Formats

These solid or semi-solid products are designed for free-choice or controlled intake and may provide salt, minerals, protein, vitamins, or other nutrients.

Chopped forage consists of hay, alfalfa, or other forage cut into shorter pieces to make it easier to chew, mix with other feeds, and portion.

Feed chunks are compressed or formed pieces of forage or complete feed that are larger than pellets and designed for easy portioning and feeding.

Crumbles are small, irregular pieces made by breaking larger pellets into a softer, more easily consumed form.

Feed cubes are compressed blocks of forage or complete feed that are larger and denser than pellets.

Extruded feeds are cooked under heat and pressure, then formed into expanded, textured pieces that can improve digestibility and make the feed easier to chew.

Gel products have a thick, semi-solid consistency and are commonly packaged in syringes or single-dose applicators for direct oral administration.

Granular powders consist of small, coarse particles that are less finely milled than standard powders and are typically mixed into a horse’s feed.

This category includes oils and other liquid-formulated products that can be measured and mixed into feed or administered directly, depending on the product.

Mash feeds are loose mixtures of ground or processed ingredients that may be fed dry or soaked with water to create a soft, easy-to-chew meal.

Multi-particle feeds contain distinct components such as pellets, grains, flakes or chopped forage.

Paste supplements have a thick consistency and are typically packaged in oral syringes for convenient, measured administration directly into the horse’s mouth.

Pellets are compressed, uniformly shaped pieces made from ground or processed ingredients, which can reduce sorting and make products easier to measure and feed.

Powdered products consist of finely ground ingredients that are typically measured by scoop and mixed into a horse’s feed.

Premixes are concentrated blends of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other nutrients designed to be added to forage, grain, or a custom feeding program.

Textured feeds are loose mixtures of ingredients such as grains, pellets, and molasses that retain visible differences in shape and texture.
