Horse Straights Direct Daily Vitamins & Minerals

Horse Straights Direct Daily Vitamins & Minerals

Horse Straights Direct Daily Vitamins & Minerals is an everyday vitamin and mineral supplement for horses and ponies, designed to provide essential nutritional support that may be missing from your horse's diet. It is best for horses on forage-led, restricted or under-fed rations where a full compound feed is not being given at the recommended rate.

Feed it daily alongside normal forage and hard feed as part of an ordinary yard routine. It suits ponies, cobs, horses and warmbloods at rest, in light schooling, hacking or general turnout.

Key Features

• Daily nutritional support: helps maintain a steady vitamin and mineral intake alongside forage and hard feed.
• Fills dietary gaps: useful where grazing is restricted or compound feed is fed below the recommended rate.
• Easy to feed: mixes into damp feed and can be split across morning and evening feeds.
• Suits all types: appropriate for ponies, cobs, horses and warmbloods in light work or at rest.
• Practical on a busy yard: one simple supplement to organise across several horses.

How to Use

1. Check the feeding rate printed on the pack for your horse's bodyweight and workload.
2. Measure the daily amount using the scoop or a clean measure.
3. Add it to a damp feed and mix through thoroughly so it is evenly distributed.
4. Split the daily quantity between morning and evening feeds if your horse is fed twice a day.
5. Introduce gradually over five to seven days, starting with a part dose, to help fussy feeders accept it.
6. Reseal the container and store in a cool, dry place. Provide fresh water at all times.

FAQ

What does this supplement do?
It is a daily vitamin and mineral supplement that provides nutritional support which may be missing from your horse's diet, helping to maintain a balanced everyday intake alongside forage and hard feed.

Which horses is it best for?
It is best for horses and ponies on forage-based or restricted diets, or those fed less than the recommended amount of a compound feed. It suits ponies, cobs, horses and warmbloods at rest or in light work.

How much should I feed?
Always follow the feeding rate printed on the pack, which is based on bodyweight and workload. Dosage confusion is the most common feeding mistake, so measure rather than estimate, and split the amount across two feeds if preferred.

My horse is fussy. Will they eat it?
Introduce it gradually over five to seven days, mixed into a damp feed with something palatable such as chaff, so your horse adjusts to the taste and texture.

Can I feed it with a balancer or other supplements?
If your horse already receives a fully balanced compound feed or another broad-spectrum supplement, check with your vet or a qualified equine nutritionist first to avoid duplicating nutrients.

Can I use it if I compete?
Competition rules on feed ingredients change, so check the current prohibited-substances list for your discipline and read the ingredients panel before feeding if you compete under FEI or British Dressage rules.
