Low in protein, starch, fructans and molasses, and completely free from dust, mould, added essential oils and artificial aromas.

FAQ

Can Wiesenflakes fully replace hay?
Yes — Wiesenflakes can be used as a 100% hay substitute, particularly for horses that struggle to chew conventional hay due to dental problems or age. They can also be used to supplement or enhance an existing forage ration. As a hay replacer, feed by weight to match your horse’s forage requirements.
How quickly do they soak and how do I prepare them?
Wiesenflakes are quick-soaking — typically ready in approximately 5 minutes even with cold water. Simply add water to the flakes, allow to absorb, and serve. This makes them highly practical for daily feeding, especially for horses that need a soft, easy-to-eat consistency.
Are they suitable for horses with laminitis or EMS?
Their low starch and low fructan content makes Wiesenflakes more suitable than many conventional forages for metabolically sensitive horses, including those prone to laminitis, horses with EMS or PPID (Cushing’s disease). Always consult your vet for individual dietary guidance and consider testing your hay’s sugar content as part of a complete dietary management plan.
Are they suitable for horses with respiratory problems?
Yes — Wiesenflakes are completely dust-free and mould-free, with no added essential oils or artificial aromas. This makes them an excellent choice for horses with respiratory conditions such as RAO, COPD, dust allergies or heaves, where conventional hay can trigger flare-ups.
How do Wiesenflakes differ from Pre Alpin® Aspero?
Both are made from 60+ Alpine meadow grasses and herbs, but they serve slightly different purposes. Aspero is a hay chaff designed to promote chewing and slow feed intake — it is typically fed dry or lightly dampened. Wiesenflakes are a quick-soak forage flake designed as a hay substitute or supplement, particularly for horses that need a fully soaked, soft consistency due to dental problems or metabolic conditions.
