Kasey Currall – Showtime

posted in: Reviews | 0

In the short period of feeding the ROBANK EQUINIZE SHOWTIME I have noticed a tremendous improvement in Tosca’s overall condition and performance!
The technology of micronizing throughout this feed is utilised in order to improve ingredients’ digestibility and reduce the risk of digestible disorders whilst increasing the nutritional value of the feed.
With Tosca being in moderate/heavy work, the EQUINIZE SHOWTIME has ensured that he is provided with his essential vitamins and fibre requirements.
Have started our young and future team of horses on this feed and definitely recommend this product to anyone who has show/dressage horses in persistent work ??

Can I feed lawn clippings to my horse?

Lawn clippings should never be fed to horses. They are very high in moisture content and develop mould very quickly; this can be very toxic to horses. The increase in moisture content of the forage provided may also cause gas colic due to a sudden change in the horses’ diet.

Why does weight loss occur?

Weight loss in mature horses can occur for a number of reasons. The fundamental reason for weight loss is simple – the horse is expending more calories (energy) than he is consuming. This can be because he is exercising more and his diet has not been adjusted. The temperature has decreased and the horse is using more energy to stay warm. If the horse is sick or injured he will use significantly more energy to heal and recover. Sickness of disease that results in a decreased appetite will decrease the calories being consumed. Adding fat to the diet will markedly increase the caloric density of his feed without increasing the bulk of his feed. Average sized horses (500kg) can be fed as much as 2 cups of oil per day. When adding fat to the diet it must be done gradually like any feeding change.

 

Can cattle feed be fed to a horse?

Any feeds or supplements designed for cattle should NEVER be fed to horses. Many additives included in cattle supplements can harm or even kill horses. For example ionophores (monensin, laslocid, or salinomycin) are common ingredients used in cattle feeds to promote growth. These, however, can be lethal in horses. Each year horses are killed due to ionophore toxicity from eating supplements intended for cattle. Another common ingredient in cattle supplements is nonprotein nitrogen (urea). Too much urea can kill horses.
