Why Pellets?
| Much higher nutritional value per pound compared to long hay. |
| Animals tend to absorb a larger percentage of the nutrients compared to long hay. |
| Much easier handling, scoops with a shovel or rake. |
| Requires 1/4 as much space to store the same amount of hay. |
| Cleaner than hay, the processing removes a high percentage of dust, dirt and contaminates. |
| Lower cost per calorie than hay |
| Works in RanchTek's Graze-A-Matic automatic feeders. |

| ALFALFA PELLETS | High in protein, alfalfa pellets are fed to the horse that is being "worked" hard as it gives them energy. Alfalfa pellets should be fed along with grain in the winter months, as it provides and maintains body heat against the cold weather. | Sun Cured Alfalfa Hay |

| ALFALFA / OAT PELLETS | The Alfalfa/Oat Pellet is an excellent pellet for the horse that is being "worked" on a lighter scale. With adding oat hay to the blend, it lowers the protein level while adding additional fiber to the horse's diet. |

| ALFALFA w/ GRAIN "livestock" PELLETS | This particular pellet is a blend of Alfalfa Hay and ground corn. It will add weight to the animal due to the fat content in the corn. A great feed for the cold, winter months as it provides and maintains body heat. It is also a good source of feed for horses that are "worked" hard and for long periods of time. | Sun Cured Alfalfa Hay, Grain Products |

| OAT PELLETS | Due to the high fiber and low protein content, the Oat Pellet is an excellent feed for horses that tend to gain weight easily. There is virtually no waste when feeding Oat Pellets compared to a 30% loss in feeding oat hay. | Oat Hay |

| FORAGE w/ MINERAL PACK PELLETS (HORSE POWER 1000) |
This particular pellet consists of the same blend of hay as that of the Forage Pellet. A balanced Mineral Pack has been added to the blend. The advantage to this is: (1 ) no handling of a mineral block, (2) no guess work to the amount of minerals ingested per day, and (3) no waste. This feed is known to be helpful in the growth of the young horse, adding and maintaining weight on the "hard keepers" and the elderly horse. | Sun Cured Alfalfa Hay, Grain Hay, Grass Hay, Mineral Pack |
