Short answer: No, there is no reason to rule it out.


Whether haylage is a problem or not for IR horses or mules depends on the sugar and starch content. The sugar and starch content in haylage can be lower or higher than in hay so you need an analysis to determine whether the haylage you are buying is appropriate to feed your IR mule.
