Product Description

- Will Not Imbalance the Normal Ration: When fed within the daily limit, these nuggets are formulated to complement rather than disrupt the horse's existing feed ration, so daily treat use stays nutritionally responsible.

How to Use

- Do not exceed 2 lbs per day: Feed no more than 2 lbs per horse per day regardless of size or activity level.
- Use in training and stretching: Hand-feed nuggets during training repetitions, carrot stretches, and grooming sessions to reinforce positive behavior and build trust through consistent rewarding.
- Not for horses that do not chew adequately: This product is not recommended for horses with dental issues that prevent proper chewing.
Additional Information
Precautions
- Do not overfeed or offer free choice: Never place the bag within reach for horses to self-serve; overfeeding treats disrupts the nutritional balance of the regular ration and can cause weight gain or digestive upset.
- Not for horses with dental issues: These are not recommended for horses that do not chew adequately due to dental problems; consult your veterinarian before feeding if the horse has difficulty chewing.
- Feed as a treat, not a meal: These nuggets are a supplemental treat and are not a complete feed; always provide a balanced primary ration appropriate for the horse's age, workload, and health status.
Storage Information
- Cool and dry location: Store in a cool, dry area away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight to maintain freshness and the structural integrity of the nuggets.
- Keep away from insects and rodents: The molasses and grain content attracts pests; store in a sealed, pest-proof container or location between uses.
- Reseal after each use: Close the bag securely after every session to keep air and moisture out and maintain nugget freshness throughout the bag.
- Feed is perishable: Check the best-by date before use and do not stockpile more than can be used within a reasonable timeframe to keep the treats palatable and fresh.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What makes these different from other horse treats?
Ans: Most horse treats are pure flavoring with minimal nutritional value. These nuggets are fortified with a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals, vitamins A, D3, and E alongside copper, zinc, and selenium, so each treat delivers a genuine nutritional contribution. The alfalfa and molasses flavor profile also uses real dehydrated alfalfa meal as an ingredient, not just flavoring alone.
Q2: How many nuggets are in each bag?
Ans: The 1 lb bag contains more than 80 individual nuggets. The 4 lb bag contains more than 300, making it the more practical option for barn owners who use treats daily across multiple horses or for extended training programs where consistent rewarding is part of the routine.
Q3: Can these be used for ponies and miniature horses?
Ans: Yes. These treats are suitable for horses, ponies, and minis of all breeds and sizes. For smaller animals, reduce the daily amount proportionally based on body weight. The daily maximum of 2 lbs is for full-sized horses, a pony or mini should receive a much smaller daily amount to keep treats within an appropriate percentage of total daily caloric intake.
Q4: Will these treats affect my horse's normal diet?
Ans: No, when fed as directed. The label specifically states these will not imbalance the normal ration when given within the 2 lb daily limit. The formula is designed as a complement to the existing feed program, not a replacement. As with any treat, the key is keeping the daily amount within a reasonable proportion of the total diet and not substituting treats for regular feed.
Q5: What is fenugreek seed doing in these treats?
Ans: Fenugreek seed is a legume seed with a distinctive sweet, maple-like aroma that horses find particularly appealing. It is commonly used in equine treats and feeds to improve palatability. Combined with the molasses and alfalfa base in this recipe, fenugreek contributes to the overall flavor profile that makes these nuggets consistently appealing to most horses across different breeds and preferences.
Q6: Can these treats be used during competition?
Ans: These are straightforward grain and alfalfa-based treats fortified with standard vitamins and minerals. They do not contain prohibited substances. Always verify with the specific governing body or competition rules before use at sanctioned events.
