Dunstan Grass Balancer
Dunstan Grass Balancer is a semi- concentrate. This makes it ideal for the young growing horse who does not require the recommended intakes of a ‘full feed’ i.e. when there are signs of Developmental Orthopaedic Disease (DOD) type conditions or where excessive growth rates through high pasture quality and availability are anticipated. In these situations feeding a ‘full feed’ at the recommended intakes to meet key nutrient requirements will result in excessive calorie intakes.
Dunstan Grass Balancer provides a balance of protein, amino acids and energy of the same high specification as Dunstan Yearling Mix, but with elevated trace minerals and vitamin levels to compensate for reduced daily feed intake.
Selenium Yeast, the organic form of Selenium for optimum assimilation of this important trace mineral is included in Dunstan Grass Balancer. Natural Vitamin E is also included, providing a more potent and bioavailable form of Vitamin E.
