Feeding Tips:

• Use the feeding table as a guide for feeding SafeChoice® Original. Be sure to monitor your horse's body condition closely and adjust the feeding rate as necessary for the desired body condition and activity level.
• Feed clean, good quality hay at the rate of 1.0 to 1.75 lb (kg) of hay per 100 lb (kg) of bodyweight per day or the pasture equivalent.
• Divide the recommended feeding level into two or more equally spaced feedings per day.
• Fresh, clean water should be available at all times, except to hot and tired horses. Always cool down your horse properly before providing free access to water.
• Horses should be maintained at a body condition score of 5 or above. Broodmares should have a body condition score of 6 or above prior to foaling.
• Salt should be available free choice at all times.

Tips for a Healthy Horse:

• All dietary changes should be made gradually over a period of 7-14 days until recommended feeding rates are achieved.
• Make certain that horses have adequate forage or pasture available.
• Make certain that all horses are on regular parasite control, dental examination and vaccination programs.
• Monitor body condition regularly and adjust feed intake as needed.
• Store feed properly to prevent exposure to moisture or contamination by insects or other pests.
• Never offer moldy hay or feed to horses.
