Saracen Essential Balancer – Pelleted Feed Balancer for Horses 20kg

Saracen Essential Balancer – 20kg

Essential Balancer is a highly nutritious, cost-effective pelleted balancer designed to complement forage-only diets or compound feeds fed below their recommended levels. Low in calories, sugar and starch, and free from whole cereal grains, it suits good-doers and native breeds that need complete, balanced nutrition without the extra energy of a full compound ration.

Because the pellet is nutritionally dense, the daily feeding rate is low while still supplying quality protein to maintain muscle tone, topline and condition. Omega-3 from linseed supports skin health, coat shine and joint mobility, and a comprehensive hoof package delivers calcium, chelated zinc and copper, lysine, methionine and biotin at the recommended level. A blend of live yeast cultures supports the digestive tract, optimising fibre digestion and energy extraction from forage.
