RE: [RC] [RC] feeding red clover round bales - Laurie Durgin

Red clover has something in it that is not good for horses ,check with your ag. dept. or vet. I read it somewhere, I have some white clover in my pasture and it seems to cause them to sweat just walking around when they are eating it, but when off they don't... But as I was getting rid of some of it purposely I came across something that said Red clover was a no, no....some compound in it you don't want horses to have.... if I remember ....

Would you be feeding only red cover or would it have some grass hay too?
Have you checked on the nutrient value of clover. It seems to me I have
heard straight cover is not good for our eq partners.
I have feed round bales...and it works great...unless your horse will keep
eating until every  morsel is gone.
My mare now has no competition for food so she eats a little, walks away,
then comes back eats more and she get to eat all day long...so the round
bales work for her.

Just thinking about different hays to feed in rnd bales this winter. Tired

horses?
