Balanced Nutrition to Keep Older Horses Active 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.
