• Stud Mix

Suitable for:

• Brood mares in foal
• Lactating mares
• Working stallions
• Growing youngstock

Diet Description:

• A palatable mix for brood mares during pregnancy and lactation and is ideal for feeding to other stud animals, providing ample nutrients for working stallions and growing youngstock. Recent research work has shown taht the nutreints a brood mare needs in her last three months of pregnancy have been underestimated. During the last three months of pregnancy, 60% of foetal development occurs and 40% of the foals skeletal structure develops inside the mare. Developmental bone disorders are found in foals less then two weeks old; this may indicate malnutrition of the brood mare during the last three months. Foals will drink up to 3% of their body weight as their mother's milk. The mare's milk yield is dependent not just on genetics but also by energy and nutrient intake during pregancy and lactation. It is very important that your mare is being fed a ration that has benn formulated especially for her.
