Product Profile

A specifically formulated milk replacer for feeding a newborn foal that is unable to nurse naturally or requires special feeding.

Ideal for Convalescing, Compromised and Orphaned Foals.

The Need

  • In an ideal world, all foals would be born healthy, vigorous and able to feed well. Unfortunately, at birth the newborn foal can be compromised, debilitated and in a weakened state. This may be because:
  • The foal is weak and unable to nurse (e.g.) pre-maturity (born prior to 320 days of gestation); dys-maturity (full term but signs of pre-maturity); severe illness or malnutrition.
  • The mare does not produce sufficient milk (e.g.) fescue endophyte toxicity, pre-maturity, maiden mare and complications of parturition.

The foal has been orphaned for some reason (e.g.) complications of foaling or rejection.
