Before we dive into the nitty-gritty details of goat nutrition, let me entice you with some fascinating facts about goats. Kamal, Nadia; Tsardakas Renhuldt, Nikos; Bentzer, Johan; etal. (2022-06-01). "The mosaic oat genome gives insights into a uniquely healthy cereal crop". Nature. 606 (7912): 113–119. Bibcode: 2022Natur.606..113K. doi: 10.1038/s41586-022-04732-y. ISSN 1476-4687. PMC 9159951. PMID 35585233. S2CID 248890897. It varies depending on each goat’s nutritional needs. Some may eat a lot, while others may only eat a little bit at a time. Typically, you will find that goats want to eat this type of hay whenever they can get their mouths on it until they have fully consumed all of what’s there. Can baby goats eat oat hay?Also known as wheat hay this type of hay comes within the family of oat, wheat and barley hay. However wheatgrass can contain more protein than oat hay. It grows well in drought areas such as the plains of North America and is more yellowish in colour (Galens Garden, 2014).

Protein plays an instrumental role in supporting muscle development and repair within their sturdy frames. Rye grass hay does work well for some horses. It is usually 8- 9% protein as fed and for horses that don't tend to put on weight and have moderate to heavy workloads, it may serve as a supplement to regular feed. In summary, it is important to remember that oat grass grown as a forage crop and oats grown as a cereal grain crop have different management and completely different nutritional outcomes, with regards to feeding horses. Visit our Standlee Forage Finder® to find the right type of forage to feed your horse, depending on their age, activity level and if they have any special needs, such as being overweight, carbohydrate sensitive, etc. Use the Standlee Feed Calculator® to assist in balancing your horse’s feed program, depending on how much current hay, grain, beet pulp or oil is being fed, to ensure they are receiving an adequate level of calories and fiber in their diet. The choice between alfalfa and oat hay depends on price per unit of energy or protein and the type of horse being fed.

[3] [28] Some cultivars of pure oat could be a safe part of a gluten-free diet, requiring knowledge of the oat variety used in food products for a gluten-free diet. [3] [4] Determining whether oat consumption is safe is critical because people with poorly controlled celiac disease may develop multiple severe health complications, including cancers. [29] When introduced gradually into their diet alongside other appropriate sources of nutrition, such as fresh grass or legume hays, oats pose no significant risk. The different types of hay available (in the UK, USA and Australia). Including a description of each type and its appearance.
