THE HIGH FIBRE, COOL CONDITIONER

A versatile, low starch feed providing slow-release energy for calm conditioning and healthy gut function.

Formulation Highlights:

  • DIGESTIVE SUPPORT: Ice® contains a high fibre, low starch formulation to promote natural digestive function and hindgut health.
  • SUITABLE FOR ULCER-PRONE HORSES: A high non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) diet is a known risk factor for equine gastric ulcer syndrome. The low NSC content makes Ice® suitable for horses prone to gastric ulcers, especially when fed in two daily meals.
  • COOL CONDITIONING FOR HOT HORSES: Highly digestible fibres ferment in the hindgut to release energy that supports cool weight maintenance.
  • BASE FEED OPTION: Ice® can also be used as a base feed to help lower the starch load in high-energy diets, making it a beneficial option for performance horses and racehorses prone to tying-up.

2. Feed by weight and not by volume.

3. Feed a minimum of 1.5% of your horse's body weight daily as roughage.

4. Horses have a small stomach, so feed little and often.

5. Ensure horses have access to clean water.

6. Do not add additional vitamins or minerals unless directed by a veterinarian or nutritionist.

7. Adjust feed intake according to age, breed, appetite, activity level, climate and body condition.
