Important information

Always provide access to sufficient fibre such as hay, chaff or pasture to ensure good hindgut digestive physiology. At least 1.5% of the horse's body weight should be provided as fibre. Split feed amounts in as many feeds as possible, but ideally no less than two feeds per day. High copper levels in McMillan horse feeds make them unsuitable for feeding to sheep. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
