You have to be REALLY clear on the specifics of the fermented food.
Equi-Lix is a fermented supplement. Chaffhaye is fermented. Haylage is fermented.
No, I would not ferment anything myself and feed it - I have no way to know if what’s going on is in a safe zone. The producers of commercial products do (or are supposed to).
Equi-Lix has a really long shelf-life even after opened. Chaffhaye does not, especially in the warmer months. I’m sure Haylage is the same.
Fermenting CAN increase the nutritional value of the product, which is why it’s done when it’s done and to what it’s done.
DDGs are safe to feed horses, with caveats. If they weren’t, most horses would be dead or sick, as it’s in a great many commercial feeds.
Take Biostar US with a huge grain of salt. They sell supplements, and they like to put down anything that isn’t like what they sell.
