EquiNectar Feeding Guide
Introducing EquiNectar to your horse
EquiNectar is very palatable and horses love the taste once they’ve got used to it. We recommend a gradual introduction of EquiNectar. The following guide might be useful:
Add EquiNectar to feed, twice per day. (If you only feed once per day, contact us and we can advise a slightly different feed rate)
Days one, two and three:
30ml twice per day – this is one pump of our standard pump.
Days four, five and six:
60ml twice per day – this is two pumps of our standard pump
Days seven, eight and nine:
90ml twice per day – this is three pumps of our standard pump.
(For small horses under 300kg in light work, just use the full feed rate of 75ml twice per day instead)
Day ten onwards:
Use the full feed rate for your horse’s weight and activity as detailed in the table below table below.
Ongoing feeding of EquiNectar
Refer to the table below. If your horse’s activity level changes, adjust your EquiNectar usage accordingly.
