Prairie Grass Hay
Prairie grass hay is a natural, warm-season grass hay made primarily from native prairie grasses, including bluestem. Prairie grass is a great choice for customers looking for a naturally grown, highly fibrous hay with moderate nutritional value. It is particularly useful for easy keepers and animals with lower energy needs.
Prairie grass is especially well suited for easy-keeping horses, mature horses with lower nutritional requirements, and animals that need plenty of forage without excessive calories. Its fibrous nature encourages chewing and can help provide a satisfying forage option for animals prone to gaining weight. It can also be a good option for certain livestock and hobby farm animals.
Because it is naturally coarser and stemmier than orchardgrass or timothy, it can be less appealing to picky eaters or animals with dental issues. It is also generally lower in protein and digestible energy, making it less suitable as the sole forage for growing, lactating, or high-performance animals without additional nutritional support. As with any hay, actual nutrient and sugar levels vary by harvest and should be evaluated through forage analysis.
Our Prairie Grass is the one hay variety we offer that is organic and unsprayed, which makes it an appealing choice for customers who specifically want a naturally grown, unsprayed forage option.
