Additional Product Information

Good Doers

Often on restricted grazing or forage and little or no hard feed, good doers are frequently lack lustre as a result. Formulated to be fed in small quantities, Lo-Cal balancer will provide essential nutrients that may be lacking through this regime, making sure the horse or pony doesnt miss out and often helping them feel brighter too, but without additional calories.

Laminitis

Its low starch level (at around 10%) and small feeding quantities make Lo-Cal balancer an ideal option for the horse or pony prone to laminitis and the excellent levels of biotin, methionine, calcium and zinc promote healthy hoof growth and repair. Customers are advised to contact Baileys Nutritionists to discuss diets for laminitics.

Working and Performance Horses

The concentrated levels of nutrients in Lo-Cal balancer create superb top line, muscle tone and overall condition whilst its low starch (energy) levels mean it is suitable for over exuberant horses. Those who maintain condition well may find that Lo-Cal balancer as the sole concentrate, plus ad lib forage (grass, hay or haylage), is all they need to support them through the competition season. For those who require a little more energy to keep them looking and feeling on top form, Lo-Cal balancer can be fed to top dress reduced quantities of other compound feeds or alongside straight cereals and can also top up nutrient levels if the hard feed used is formulated for a lower level of work than the horse is actually doing.
