Feeding
Directions
- Feed changes should be made over a period of 7-10 days.
- Harmony Senior Pellets should be split into at least two feedings per day to assist with optimal digestive health. See serving size charts for appropriate feeding rates.
- Please accurately determine how much to feed. A kitchen scale is an excellent tool for any feed room.
- If the recommended feed rates are not suitable for your horse (ie: unwanted weight changed), please contact us to discuss your horse’s individual needs.
- DO NOT EXCEED recommended feeding rates.
- Provide clean water and a salt source at all times. DO NOT provide additional trace minerals containing copper, zinc and/or selenium.
- Adequate forage supply provides the base of a healthy diet. If free choice hay is unavailable, ensure a minimum of 1.5% of the horse’s bodyweight as hay or equivalent pasture is provided daily.
