and Healthy
Formulated as a complete pelleted feed and with an
option of added beet pulp. Senior Blend is balanced nutrition for
older horses. It is ideal for horses with dental problems or those that tend to
“sort” their feed. With complete nutrition in every bite, Senior Blend supports
important nutritional requirements, even for selective and picky eaters. Senior
Blend can be fed as a total ration without hay, or as a complete ration
supplemented with some hay. The pelleted form provides highly digestible sources
of fiber and protein, with a concentration of vitamins and minerals necessary
for good health and fitness. Vegetable oil, added as a concentrated form of
energy, also promotes healthy hair and bloom.
