Senior Horse Ration 14%

Brooks Senior is formulated with enhanced levels of protein, highly digestible sources of fibre and a controlled starch and sugar (NSC) level. Brooks Senior is generously fortified with minerals and vitamins including chelated minerals which have improved absorption in a less efficient digestive system. Added fat in the form of flax, rice bran and soy oil raise the calorie density while beet pulp, soy hulls and alfalfa meal ensure a solid fibre intake for a healthy lower gut. The addition of a prebiotic and a probiotic ensure maximum utilization of nutrients to meet the needs of most aged horses. Brooks Senior supplies total nutrition in a palatable textured format that horses take to readily and stay on while outperforming similar competitive products. Brooks Senior can be moistened for older horses with poor teeth or horses prone to choke.

Key Benefits:

• Stabilized flax meal is a rich source of Omega 3 fatty acids to enrich the hair coat, contribute to healthy hooves, support the immune system and provide antiinflammatory support. Rice bran is a good source of digestible fibre and fat.

Amount of feed required is dependent on the body condition, the metabolism and the type of activity the horse is used for. Add ¼ pound (115 grams) Brooks Enhancer or All Phase 20 for each pound of Brooks Senior fed daily below the recommended amount. Provide fresh clean water and free choice salt at all times with ideally at least 1.5 % of the horse’s bodyweight in hay or equivalent pasture. Store in a cool dry location. Amount fed varies according to the quality of hay or pasture. Hay analysis is recommended to ensure a balanced ration.
