This superior high-specification, ultra-low iron horse feed balancer has been specifically formulated for use with performance horses in moderate to heavy work on winter pasture, or restricted grazing.
The formula has been carefully devised using our own unique analytical data from the thousands of grass, hay and haylage samples that we test each year.
This balancer will support muscle strength and development, enhance stamina and athleticism, supplying your horse with the extra nutrients needed to maintain the highest level of performance in all activities.
This is a low-sugar, filler-free powdered balancer, packed with pure minerals and vitamins. The perfect partner for beet pulp, oats, alfalfa, copra, wheat bran, and other compound feeds.
How to feed the balancer?
All of our Balancers are powders, very low in sugar and starch, and free from any fillers, bulking agents or additives.
We use the highest-purity minerals and vitamins, ensuring against contamination from heavy metals, and maximising absorption rates.
All of our balancers are best carried in a high-fibre, fast-soak fibre of your choice.
We have a handy video here on how to best feed the balancer.
If your horse has unrestricted spring or summer grazing, then opting for the summer version of this balancer would be best.
