Our fields are heavily fertilized and managed with a goal of producing hay with protein levels between 10 and 12%, which is higher than average for coastal bermuda and suitable for horses of all ages, performance horses and senior horses.
We only use weed control products that are safe for horses to graze immediately after application. You are welcome to see the bales before purchasing. We can deliver 1 to 5 bales for a fee or load your trailer. We also have contacts who can deliver larger loads for a fee.
This cutting produced the highest calorie hay and high relative feed value, perfect for growing horses and hard working horses. Still keeping the sugar and starch low.
This hay tested at 15.66 protein, perfect for senior horses and broodmares and low enough in sugar and starch for insulin resistant, metabolic challenged, cushings and laminitic horses.
The 2nd cutting hay tested slightly lower in protein and calories than the 1st cutting even with the same amount of fertilizer. It is still above the 12 % protein requirement for performance horses and qualifies as low sugar and starch. Calcium/ phosphorus ratios are perfect. it is also soft and green from being cut early.
