Product Description

Double Compressed Timothy Hay Bales for Horses and Ponies

Our Strapped Timothy Hay is suitable for leisure horses and ponies, particularly native types and those in lower levels of work or at rest. Typical analysis shows that our Timothy Hay is low in energy (calories) and high in fibre. This makes our Timothy Hay particularly suitable for good doers, those on box rest or convalescing and fizzy/sharp horses and those that require a low energy/calorie diet.

 

For those already using other products within the M&T range, our Timothy Hay represents our lowest calorie (energy) option, a step down from our Meadow Hay and Low Energy Haylage. With our Double Compressed bales being sliced, they also provide an easier way to feed your horses and ponies.

Timothy Hay Bale FAQs

What is Timothy Hay?

+

Timothy hay is a premium quality, high-fibre forage made from Timothy grass, valued for its excellent nutritional profile and palatability. Naturally moderate in protein and energy yet high in digestible fibre, Timothy hay supports healthy digestion and helps horses maintain a healthy weight. Because it is lower in calories than other forage options, such as Ryegrass, Timothy hay is ideal for horses in light work, good doers, older horses, those on box rest or on weight management programmes. 

However, it’s important to remember that every horse has different nutritional needs, and while Timothy hay is typically the preferred choice for horses needing fewer calories, it’s essential to tailor the forage offered to your horse’s specific requirements. Get in touch with our nutritionist, Briony, if you’re unsure whether Timothy hay is the right fit for your horse or pony.

Why Choose Timothy Hay Compressed Bales Over Bags?

+

At M&T, we offer our high-quality Timothy hay in both compressed bales and bags. While our bagged Timothy is compact, making it ideal for travelling, our compressed Timothy hay bales are denser, making them much easier to store and handle larger volumes of hay. They are designed for convenience, whilst still ensuring you receive high-quality forage. 

What Weight and Size are Your Compressed Timothy Hay Bales?

+

Each compressed bale is produced to ensure a consistent weight and size, making them straightforward to store and feed. On average, our double-compressed Timothy hay bales weigh approximately 20kg, offering exceptional value for money compared to lighter bagged alternatives.

    “M&T Haylage is our reliable partner for the horse feed industry.We have enjoyed a long-standing partnership with M&T Haylage since 2019, and for good reason. Their commitment to producing high-quality haylage for horses is second to none. As a business that values the health and well-being of our equine customers, we rely on partners like M&T to provide a consistent and nutritious product. ”

  • Louise B

    “My horses love the Low Energy Haylage and it is going down well. The main reason I changed it was to stop my pony from coughing as she is very sensitive to any dust. She has stopped coughing now. Fabulous service by yourselves from initial contact to delivery and it is much appreciated!”

  • Leah C

    “Very happy to have found your Low Energy Haylage, after my horses and I developed a bad cough from really dusty hay from a different supplier. Your haylage is absolutely dust free, much easier to handle and there is zero waste. I wish I had changed a lot earlier as it’s the best forage I’ve ever used in 40 plus years with horses”

  • Kim C

    “High quality products, we have bought from M&T for a number of years. Good, friendly advice (we have an ex-race horse and a laminitis prone Cob). Highly recommend”
