How much Equi-Jewel is fed daily?
One to two pounds of Equi-Jewel is recommended per day. Rate of supplementation is dependent upon desired calorie intake.
Why is Equi-Jewel appropriate for sale or show horses?
Equi-Jewel is abundant in fat, an essential element for top-notch coat condition, so it is perfectly suited for the preparation of show and sale horses. Feeding Equi-Jewel eliminates the need to feed messy vegetable oils.
Why is Equi-Jewel useful for the performance horse?
Equi-Jewel contains 20% fat and is therefore a rich source of calories. Fat provides “cool energy” to the horse. Other sources of energy, such as starch, may cause a horse to be too hot or difficult to handle.
How can Equi-Jewel help my underweight horse?
Horses that do not maintain weight are called “hard keepers.” Equi-Jewel is ideal for hard keepers because of its energy-dense nature. Because it is a concentrated energy source, feeding Equi-Jewel daily will boost calorie consumption and improve body condition.
How does Equi-Jewel affect the nutrient profile of a diet?
Equi-Jewel complements any feeding program that contains a balanced nutritient profile. Equi-Jewel contains calcium and phosphorus in proper proportions.
