Specifically engineered for pregnant mares, lactating mares, foals, youngstock, and breeding stallions, this highly concentrated, low-intake stud balancer provides elite nutritional support without the risk of excess weight gain or dangerous growth spurts.

Formulated by equine nutritionists, Suregrow delivers high-quality protein packed with essential amino acids like Lysine and Methionine, which are critical for uniform muscle synthesis and tissue development. It features a precise, balanced ratio of Calcium, Phosphorus, Copper, and Zinc to promote strong, correct bone calcification and protect against developmental orthopedic disorders (DOD). Fully fortified with a comprehensive spectrum of vitamins and hoof-supporting biotin, it ensures your breeding stock maintains excellent internal health, top-line muscle conditioning, and brilliant coat bloom.

📋 Stud Feeding & Management Guide

Recommended Daily Feed Rates (As a Balancer):

• Pregnant Mares (Months 9-11): 100g per 100kg of bodyweight daily.
• Lactating Mares (Months 1-3): 150g per 100kg of bodyweight daily.
• Foals & Weanlings (3-6 Months): 200g per 100kg of bodyweight daily.
• Yearlings & Youngstock: 100g to 150g per 100kg of bodyweight daily.

Feeding Protocols:

1. Fresh Forage Baseline: Suregrow must be fed alongside ad-libitum access to clean, high-quality grazing, hay, or haylage to meet basic fiber needs.
2. Use the Cup: Because it is highly concentrated, always weigh your rations carefully using a digital scale or a marked Dodson & Horrell feed cup to avoid over-supplementation.
3. Divide Big Portions: For lactating mares or younger weanlings on higher rates, split the daily balancer ration across 2 separate daily meals.
4. ⭐ Top Tip: For young foals showing initial interest in hard feed, Suregrow pellets can be lightly softened with warm water to create a soft, highly palatable starter mash that is easy on delicate erupting teeth.
