Topical Questions & Answers

Q. When I start feeding haylage my horses droppings always become a little 'loose'. Is there a supplement that can help?

A. It is always important to make gradual changes to the diet so the microflora in the gut have time to adapt to the new feed. However, if your horse's droppings are still a bit loose, try feeding Think Pink.
The probiotics and digestive aids in this formula will help settle the digestive system more quickly and make sure he is utilising the feed correctly. Think Pink is a great all round 'balancer' for this time of
the year to help promote condition.  It contains linseed oil, vitamins, minerals and probiotics and could be the only supplement you will need! Think Pink is fantastic value, costing only £11.50 for up to 40 days supply.

Q. my horse is prone to mud reactions so I was wondering when is the best time to start feeding Think Mud?

A. For the best results you need to start feeding Think Mud before it gets too muddy. Prevention is far better than cure, and if you can optimise your horse's immune system now, he is far less likely to get sore legs in the winter. Pre-loading Think Mud into the system before you get a problem will help fight off the bacteria before the skin reaction starts.

Q. There is limited turn out at my yard during the winter and my horse can become excitable, despite low energy feeds. Would
a calmer help?
A. Think Calm is excellent for 'taking the edge off' your horse's temperament, therefore helping to keep him more relaxed
and less likely to become stressed or excited. It normally works within a couple of weeks and you can feed it throughout the winter
months until you are able to turn out again. Likewise, it is also beneficial for horses on box rest.  

Q. Despite living out, one of my old ponies always has a mild cough when I start putting hay out for them. As they do not have a
hard feed I can't really give a supplement. Is there an alternative?

A. HerbiLIX Airways will be a perfect fit for your management regime. It is a solid, low sugar, mineral lick with added herbs, eucalyptus
and menthol for a healthy respiratory system. As you are not giving any feed, the extra vitamins, minerals and yeast in HerbiLIX will keep them in good condition throughout the winter. The unique low molasses, non sticky formulation makes HerbiLIX ideal for ponies.
