Round bales sometimes get a bad rep as a feeding option for horses, but with proper management they can be a great option. Kentucky Performance Products has developed an infographic to illustrate.

There is often a stigma attached to feeding round bales to horses, but managed well they can be a safe and economical option.

If you decide to feed round bales to your horses, be sure to purchase them from a reputable dealer who has cut and stored the hay properly.
