Product info
Farnam Weight Builder
Traditionally, horses needing more calories for increased stamina were fed more grain. However, excessive amounts of grain can lead to digestive upset, such as colic, diarrhea and even founder. Plus, grains are digested as simple sugars, which can make a horse “hot” or hyperactive. Recently, researchers have discovered the benefits of adding fat to horses’ diets:
• Maintains & enhances body weight.
• Enhances skin, coat and overall body condition.
• Easily metabolized–no digestive tract upset.
• More calories than equal weights of grain. Less volume needs to be fed.
• Allows for decreased heat production.
• Spares glycogen stores in muscles.
WEIGHT BUILDER’S™ UNIQUE FORMULA:
• Contains 40% fat.
• Is high in omega-3 fatty acids.
• Has added calcium to help maintain calcium/ phosphorus ratio.
