Feed material

Heat-treated barley flakes as a hygienically high-quality and easily digestible source of energy for animals with increased energy requirements

Compared to oats, barley has a slightly higher energy value, but lower starch digestibility. So the energy content of barley can only be absorbed in the small intestine after hydrothermal treatment of the barley. Only through this heat treatment, the starch can then be converted into energy.

With a rather low crude fiber content of approx. 5%, barley is mainly used as a starch carrier in the feed diets, which means that the amount of feed for the different animal species has to be weighed up and limited. As a ß-glucan-rich grain, barley has positive and digestive effects for horses, but for other species such as poultry, a high ß-glucan content can decrease digestibility why the dosing rate of barley in the complete feed should be limited.

Feeding recommendation:

for horses:

  • Barley was traditionally used as an energy source in horse feeding in the Orient and is now often used in the feed rations of sport and breeding horses.
  • As an alternative to oats, the higher energy content must be taken into account!
  • 1kg of oats is replaced with 0.9kg of barley flakes.

for chicken & other poultry:

  • Barley flakes are used in chicken feed to increase energy levels, but due to the high content of ß-glucans, the rate at which they are mixed into the complete feed should be limited in order to ensure good usability of the feed
  • For pullets and chicken chicks we recommend a mixing rate of approx. 15-20%, for laying hens, laying quail and parent animals up to 40%, parent animals of waterfowl up to 60%.

for small animals:

  • As with all types of grain, care should be taken with barley so as not to burden the digestive tract of rabbits and rodents.
  • In special situations, however, it can make sense to energetically upgrade the feeding.
  • Our barley flakes can, for example, be offered over the winter months or for pregnant animals as an energy-rich feed supplement.
  • To keep the animals busy, we recommend distributing 0.5-1 teaspoon under the fresh bedding or in the hay.

Corn Flakes
Feed materialHighly digestible corn flakes · provides high energy with low protein content · to feed weakened animals · for animals with increased energy needs Steam-heated maize to enrich the energy-level of feed diets for weakened animals or in periods of high performance requirementsCompared to other types of grain, corn kernels are particularly rich in starch, but contain lower amounts of protein. But the unprocessed, dried corn grain is not easily digestible for most animal species as horses, rabbits and rodents. So their organism cannot break down the valuable starch from the grain very well.We therefore process our corn into crunchy, golden-yellow corn flakes by gentle steam heating. This process changes the corn structure, what simplify eating and chewing the corn, and furthermore the combination of heat and steam breaks down the starch in the grain, a kind of pre-digesting process. Now most of the starch can be absorbed in the small intestine and be converted into energy.Du

EMH Hay Cubes 20 kg
Feed supplement for horses and poniesThe hay substitute from Eggersmann: EMH Hay Cubes, made from pure, sun-dried hay.EMH Hay Cubes are an ideal complete hay replacement, especially in older horses, and those with dental problems.

By buying only from contracted farms, we can guarantee a careful harvesting and processing methods as well as best grass quality. As a result of regular soil sampling, the fields are systematically fertilised and cultivated with the specific needs of horses in mind. As such, herbs are not displaced by excessive fertiliser application, but are specifically promoted for a mixture that is diverse. To support the digestion of the fibres and improve the ability to absorb nutrients, the hay fibres have been enriched with Eggersmann MicroHerbs (EMH). When fed regularly, you can expect an

EMH Senior Muesli 20 kg
Feed supplement for horses and poniesEMH Senior Muesli is an innovative special mix enriched with EMH, optimally composed to take into the account the special nutritional requirements of older horses and of those in times of regeneration. The nutritional requirements of our horses can as they get older. As the need for high-quality vital substances, like essential amino acids and trace elements rises. If these requirements are not met, this can lead to problems with the coat change, increased susceptibility to infections, but also weight loss and loss of appetite. For this reason, we have continued to optimise the composition of out EMG Senior Muesli according to the latest research. High-quality amino acids support the maintenance and development of the muscular system, as well as body substance. In combination with higher levels of zinc, copper, manganese and selenium, partially as organic compounds, your horse's immune system can regenerate much faster. That way, existing deficits c
