Equine Exceed Calmer Bites Strawberry Horse Treats
Description
Equine Exceed Calmer Bites Strawberry - Bite Sized Calming Treats for Horses
Equine Exceed Calmer Bites are strawberry flavoured, bite sized treats formulated to support relaxed, confident and focused behaviour in horses and ponies. They are best for horses that get anxious in exciting, stressful or new environments, such as travelling in the lorry, hacking out alone, clipping or competing away from home.
Unlike powders and syringes, each bite is ready portioned and fed by hand, so there is nothing to weigh, mix or hide in a feed. That makes them a practical option for riders who need situational support at the showground, at the trailer ramp or on the yard.
Key Features
- Supports settled behaviour: formulated to help maintain relaxed, confident and focused horses

- Situational feeding: feed 1-2 bites an hour before the event or outing
- Top up as needed: may be topped up every 3 hours

FAQ
How many Calmer Bites should I feed?
Feed 1-2 Calmer Bites an hour before they are required. They may be topped up every 3 hours if needed.
When should I feed them before travelling or competing?
Around one hour before loading or before your class, so the bites have time to take effect. For a long day, top up every 3 hours.
Are they suitable for ponies as well as horses?
Yes. They are suitable for horses and ponies, including natives, cobs and warmbloods. Start at the lower end of the feeding rate for smaller ponies.
Will my fussy horse eat them?
They are strawberry flavoured and bite sized, which most horses take readily from the hand. If your horse is suspicious of new treats, crumble one over a small feed first.
Can I use them in competition?
Some calming ingredients, valerian in particular, are prohibited substances under FEI and British Dressage rules. Check the current prohibited-substances list for your discipline before feeding if you compete.
How should I store them?
Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container and use within 6 months of opening.
