Whole oats have stood the test of time as one of the most trusted and natural grain options for horses. For decades, they’ve been used to support energy, weight gain, and overall health — and they remain a favourite for many horse owners today.
Whole oats provide a moderate level of starch and a natural form of slow-release energy, making them ideal for horses in light to moderate work or needing extra calories — without being too “hot.”
Oats are one of the most digestible grains for horses. Their softer husk and lower starch density (compared to corn or barley) mean they’re easier on the digestive system when fed appropriately.
Need to add condition without overfeeding processed feed? Whole oats are a great way to naturally build and maintain body weight, especially in horses that struggle to keep condition.
Whole oats are exactly that — whole. With minimal processing, they retain their natural nutrients, including fibre, protein, and B vitamins, while giving you control over your horse’s diet.
Most horses enjoy oats! They’re a palatable feed that’s easy to mix with supplements or other feeds and usually well tolerated when introduced gradually.
