Stud & Grow

 

> Low GI > Essential amino acids
> Live yeast culture

 

A cool feed formulated to provide breeding and growing horses with essential nutrition for optimum health and development.

  • Essential amino acids, calcium, phosphorus, trace minerals and vitamins for proper skeletal development, body growth and lactation
  • Live yeast aids increased fibre, phosphorus and calcium digestibility in mares, increases lipid and amino acid absorption and improves milk availability to foals
  • Low starch (21%) with a low glycemic index (GI), helps maintain more stable blood sugar and insulin levels which may help prevent developmental orthopaedic diseases (DOD)
  • Natural anti-oxidants including vitamin E, vitamin C and selenium to protect cells against oxidative damage
  • Increased levels of biotin for improved hoof integrity and strength
  • Chromium yeast for regulation of glucose metabolism

Feeding Tips

  • Suggested feeding rates should be used as a guide only
  • The type of feed and quantity individual horses require will depend on the quality of your pasture/hay, stage of training, intensity of exercise, body condition and metabolism of your horse.
  • Feed a minimum of 1% of your horse’s body weight (BW) daily as roughage
  • If feeding over 0.5kg/100kg BW per day, divide the feeds into two or more smaller feeds
  • Introduce new feeds into your horse’s ration gradually over a period of 1-2 weeks
  • Ensure horses always have access to clean, fresh water
