• Step 8 Hi-Fat is ideal for helping horses maintain their body condition over winter
• Fat sources used include canola oil, ground flax and rice bran – chosen to provide an optimal ratio of Omega 3:6 fatty acids.

Feeding Instructions:

Feed Step 8 - Hi-Fat in at least two separate feeds per day, according to the activity level and condition of the horse. In general mature horses (450 kg) can be fed up to 2.5 kg (5 lb) of Hi-Fat per day. This will provide your horse with approximately 0.45 kg (1 lb) of supplemental fat per day in a safe convenient form.

Step 8 - Hi-Fat should be offered as a component of a balanced ration, including access to good quality forage and ample access to clean water.
