Saw this in TSC! It is so hard to find good hay here in Texas especially with there being a shortage. Grabbed it for my mares, they absolutely love it. I put it with the diamond senior they went crazy. They have 43 acres to themselves. This helps out also with it being dry here in TX.
This is going to be a nice addition to our horse's hay and I love that it is a grass/alfalfa blend with added vitamins and minerals!
