Labels can be very confusing! 🤯
Never hesitate to ask for some advice on your horses feed. We will do our best to help you along the way 🐴😄
Confused by feed labels?
Not sure whether your horse needs a balancer, conditioning feed, mash or supplement?
Wondering why your good doer is still overweight… or why your poor doer still isn’t holding condition? 👀
You’re definitely not alone 💚
Every horse is different, and factors such as workload, age, temperament, grazing, forage quality, digestive health and body condition can all influence what type of diet will suit them best. What works brilliantly for one horse may be completely wrong for another.
That’s why our SPILLERS Nutrition Team are here to help.
Whether you’re managing:
✔️ A good doer or poor doer
✔️ Weight gain or weight loss
✔️ Excitability or spooky behaviour
✔️ Digestive health concerns
✔️ Laminitis-prone horses
✔️ Senior horses
✔️ Performance horses
✔️ Muscle development or topline
✔️ Feeding around workload changes
✔️ Recovery, hydration or condition support
…our friendly team can help guide you towards a feeding plan tailored to your individual horse or pony 💜
And sometimes, small changes can make a really big difference.
Adjusting forage intake, balancing nutrients correctly, changing the type of energy fed or simply reviewing portion sizes may all help support better health, performance and wellbeing. Feeding isn’t just about calories — it’s about supporting the whole horse.
Our Nutrition Team can also help make sense of:
🌱 Fibre vs conditioning feeds
🌱 Balancers vs supplements
🌱 Sugar and starch levels
🌱 Feeding rates
🌱 Bucket feed combinations
🌱 Seasonal management changes
🌱 Choosing feeds for specific health concerns
Because horse nutrition can feel overwhelming at times — especially when everyone on the yard has a different opinion 🙃
