Aanvullend advies
- Divide the “Feed quantity per day” over at least two feeding moments per day.
- Supplement the diet with ad libitum roughages (read more about browsers and grazers).
- Grass hay is preferred over lucerne hay as it is lower in protein and calcium.
- Stimulate foraging behaviour by hiding, stacking or hanging their feed. Besides this, scatter feeding is also a good option (read more about feed enrichment and foraging behaviour).
