Senior Horse




Q: My horse is older but still maintains his weight well and has good teeth – does he need a senior feed?

Q: My horse is older and is losing weight and has bad teeth and can’t chew sweet feed – what should I feed him?


A: HYGAIN TRU CARE is a high fat, high fiber extruded feed that is easily digested. It can be wet to form a mash or slurry for horses with very poor teeth. It has all the same joint benefits as HYGAIN EQUINE SENIOR but is easier to eat by horses with bad teeth. HYGAIN MICRBEET is also a great addition to increase the fiber and calorie content and quality in diets of horses that can no longer chew hay properly.
