FEEDING DIRECTIONS:
Horses should consume a ration of long stem roughage ( hay) equaling 1 to 2 lbs. Per 100 lbs. Of body weight daily. Feed at a regular time each day and split feedings into two separate feedings. Do not feed more than 0.5% of body weight at each feeding. If you are feeding more than 0.5% of body weight at each feeding switch to three feedings day. Provide free choice, fresh, clean water at all times except to hot horses that have been exercised. Offer salt free choice at all times and Heritage Horse Minerals can be fed if desired. Bring horses on to this feed gradually over a 10 day period to give the horse’s digestive system time to adapt to the new feed.
The feeding chart is intended as a guide for feeding Heritage 16% Mare & Foal Pellets.
