Only the best quality oats are included making the mix nutrient dense and particularly appetising, so ideal for tempting fussy feeders. It contains excellent quality protein for muscle and tissue development and repair whilst the superior vitamin and mineral profile has been specially developed to support growth and includes chelated (Bioplex®) minerals and important antioxidants.
Stud Mix is the ideal all-round stud ration for pregnant and lactating broodmares, growing foals and 
youngstock as well as covering stallions and can be fed alongside Stud Balancer to add flexibility to the feeding regime.

Feeding Recommendations
- The following table suggests quantities of Stud Mix to be fed in pounds and kilogrammes per day when feeding ad lib good quality forage.
- Quantities are based on the “anticipated mature bodyweight” of the youngster or actual bodyweight of the adult horse. The actual/estimated bodyweights of a youngster’s dam and/or sire are a good basis from which to estimate the “anticipated mature bodyweight” ie. the bodyweight you believe the youngster will attain as an adult.

FEEDING ADVICE
- The table left is designed as a basic guide and quantities should be adjusted according to individual requirements.
- Introduce foals to Stud Mix from 3 months of age and reduce milk based creep feed gradually.
- For those mares or youngstock carrying a little too much condition, the quantity of Stud Mix fed can be reduced and Stud Balancer added to maintain essential nutrient levels. Every 1.4kg/3lb of Stud Mix removed from the diet should be replaced with 0.45kg/1lb (two coffee mugs) of Stud Balancer.
