  • Sandra, Malaysia

    “M&T Haylage is our reliable partner for the horse feed industry.We have enjoyed a long-standing partnership with M&T Haylage since 2019, and for good reason. Their commitment to producing high-quality haylage for horses is second to none. As a business that values the health and well-being of our equine customers, we rely on partners like M&T to provide a consistent and nutritious product. ”

  • Louise B

    “My horses love the Low Energy Haylage and it is going down well. The main reason I changed it was to stop my pony from coughing as she is very sensitive to any dust. She has stopped coughing now. Fabulous service by yourselves from initial contact to delivery and it is much appreciated!”

  • Leah C

    “Very happy to have found your Low Energy Haylage, after my horses and I developed a bad cough from really dusty hay from a different supplier. Your haylage is absolutely dust free, much easier to handle and there is zero waste. I wish I had changed a lot earlier as it’s the best forage I’ve ever used in 40 plus years with horses”

  • Kim C

    “High quality products, we have bought from M&T for a number of years. Good, friendly advice (we have an ex-race horse and a laminitis prone Cob). Highly recommend”

  • Andrea N

    “Everyone should shop from M&T, they are a lovely, helpful and professional company. Great products - my horses love their haylage. Whenever I order, they deliver fast and efficiently. Thank you to all, I would not go anywhere else!”

  • SS

    “My orders have always been delivered in a timely manner, sometimes surprisingly quick. They provide amazing hay: green, fresh and tastes delicious. Tasty Timothy is definitely my rabbits' favourite”

Bagged Timothy Hay for Horses and Ponies

Our Timothy Hay provides the ideal solution for good doers and native types in rest to moderate work, requiring high levels of fibre but low levels of energy (calories) and sugar. With typical sugar levels below 10%, our Timothy Hay is suitable for laminitics or those with clinical conditions that mean a low sugar diet is required. Being low in sugar also makes this product suitable for horses and ponies that can become hot or fizzy on high energy and sugar forage and those on box rest or convalescing. Our Timothy Hay represents the lowest step on our product ladder in terms of energy (calories) which is typical of Timothy grass species, often being more suitable for the better doer and leisure horse type than Ryegrass-based products.
Our bagged Timothy Hay offers a mess-free, compact option, ideal for travelling and staying away at events.
