Agrobs Pre Alpen Senior 12.5kg - Free P&P

Agrobs Pre Alpen Senior is a dust-free, cereal-free hay replacer specially formulated for older horses and those with poor dentition or difficulty chewing. As horses age, changes in metabolism, reduced regeneration capacity, and tooth wear make efficient feed utilisation harder — Pre Alpen Senior provides the energy, essential fatty acids, and crude fibre needed to maintain good body condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Pre Alpen Senior fully replace hay?

Yes — it can be used as a 100% hay replacer for horses that can no longer chew conventional hay effectively. It can also be used to supplement or enhance an existing forage ration.

Is it suitable for horses with Cushing’s or EMS?

It is cereal-free and low in starch, which makes it more suitable than cereal-based feeds for metabolically sensitive horses. Always consult your vet for individual dietary guidance.

How should it be fed to horses with dental problems?

Pre Alpen Senior can be soaked in water to create a soft, easy-to-eat consistency — ideal for horses with significant tooth loss or difficulty chewing dry feed.

At what age should I switch to a senior feed?

Signs of ageing such as weight loss, greying around the head, or difficulty chewing are good indicators. Many horses benefit from senior feeds from around 15–18 years, though this varies by individual.
