Pelleted Feed for Geriatric or Stressed Horses
Feeding Instructions
- Feed 1/2 to 1 1/2 lb per 100 lb body weight and allow free choice pasture or hay.
- Feeding levels may vary with the seasons, type of forage and the general condition of the horse. In general, an average size riding horse (1000 to 1200 lb) should consume 5 to 10 pounds of Longevity per day.
- The amount given at any one time should be no more than 0.5% of the horse's body weight. For example, a 1000 lb horse should be fed no more than 5 lb per feeding.
- Always provide clean, fresh water and salt.
- Do not feed additional proteins, vitamins or minerals except on the advice of a nutritionist.
- In many cases, even horses over 20 years of age can be kept in good condition with McCauley's Original 12. Please consult our nutritionists for more information.
- For horses experiencing difficulty in chewing hay and/or pasture, McCauley's Alam may partially or completely replace the roughage portion of the diet.
- Both Alam and Longevity can be fed as a mash.
- Consult your veterinarian concerning proper health programs.
- Always maintain good dental care and worm control programs.
