Farnam Grow Colt Supplement for Growth & Development, Supports Normal, consistent Growth in First Years of foal's Life, 7.5 lb

Description

Nutrition plays a significant role in producing a robust and sound horse. To grow correctly and achieve their full genetic potential, foals must receive a nutritionally balanced diet adequate in energy, protein, vitamins, and minerals. During a foal's life, there are certain times when it's critical to feed a nutritionally correct diet. At 2-4 months when the nutritional value of a mare's milk may not be adequate to meet the growing foal's dietary requirements, as well as 4-6 months when foals are usually weaned. Vitamins and minerals are essential for correct growth; calcium, phosphorous, and magnesium are vital for bone matrix development; copper, zinc, and manganese for collagen, cartilage, and skeletal tissue development; vitamins A, D, and E for muscle development. Farnam's Growth & Development Colt Supplement supports optimal growth and development in the first years of a foal's life. They are specially formulated to contain balanced calcium: phosphorous ratio for proper bone development, plus 27 other nutrients to support average, consistent growth, immune health, and connective tissue development. Great for sucklings; add to creep feed. This palatable supplement is now available in easy-to-feed pellets! Review: I rescued a Mustang mare from a “Lot” and SURPRISE! she was pregnant. I had no idea what kind of baby she was going to have, but I wanted to make sure my foal received excellent nutrition after weaning. My Mustang had a beautiful filly and my mare’s milk numbers were the best they could have been (my mare was on Buckeye Nutrition’s Gro N Win after being very underweight when I got her). After research and reading multiple reviews on multiple websites, this product really stood out to me to help my filly’s development. Note: my filly is also on quality forage and is fed Buckeye Nutrition’s Growth feed on a daily basis. Initially, my filly did not like the supplement (I sweetened it with a little bit of Farnam’s apple flavored electrolytes and that seemed to work just fine). After a while, I reduced the amount of electrolytes needed for flavor and now she does not need them to finish off her feed. Since she had been on the supplement, feed, and quality forage only (weaned in September), she had been growing a solid .1 hand/1” per month. In November/December, I got busy and slacked with feeding. After those 50-60 days, I measured her and realized she had only grown .1hands in that time (versus the .1hand every 30+/- days). I immediately got back on the strict feeding schedule and she grew that .1hand in 30+/- days, like she had previously (recorded mid-January). I have had no issues with this supplement and will continue to use it through the recommended feeding instruction timeline. My filly loves it and we’ll be sticking with it. Review: Excellent product!! I purchased a colt very small for his age. Since I've been feeding grow colt he is really catching up in height and development. Really Blooming. I just started a newly purchased 18 month old filly on Grow colt
