How to prepare your Smart Feed®

1️⃣ Measure & Mix
Add your desired amount of Smart Feed® to a clean bucket or feed tub.
💡 Tip: Use 1 part feed to 2 parts clean water. Use more or less water to suit!

2️⃣ Soak for 10 Minutes ⏱️
Let the feed sit for at least 10 minutes.
🧬 This activates key ingredients, releases bioactive compounds, and improves absorption of vital water-soluble nutrients like B vitamins and electrolytes.

3️⃣ Serve & Enjoy 🍽️
As the feed hydrates, it releases natural aromas that stimulate appetite and make every bite more enticing—especially for fussy or recovering horses.

💯Safe, quick, and easy – no mess, no stress!

⚠️Homemade rations warning

Homemade rations often result in imbalanced calcium-to-phosphorus ratios, which can impair nutrient absorption and compromise skeletal health. DIY Smart Feed includes additional, precisely calibrated calcium and phosphorus to help support:

Horses and ponies with limited access to quality pasture
The maintenance of bone integrity, joint health, and metabolic function

Increased mineral support may be required during late pregnancy, lactation, or when grazing high-oxalate pastures such as Kikuyu.

Not sure if your horses current ration is balanced then you could request professional assistance.

Ingredients

Suggested Feeding Rates

Suggested feeding rate is flexible so you can easily meet your horses habitation needs. Submerge in water, increasing or decreasing the amount of water to suit!
⚖️ Add a mineral vitamin supplement to DIY Smart Feed to balance the diet.
📊 Nutrient levels of all supplements you currently add to the feed should be factored in before you start. Ask for professional guidance if unsure!
