HORSEHEATH NUTRITION
PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS for Performance Horses

BREEDING & DEVELOPMENT

HORSEHEATH NUTRITION Products have been used for many years by a number of very successful horse and pony breeders in the Beds/Herts/Bucks areas, as their testimonials show.

Although not originally formulated for the purpose, a number of customers have found  BodyBuilda™  and Working Horse Mix to provide highly effective base feeds for their breeding stock.

The Products: 

HORSEHEATH STUD MIX -  a high quality conventional coarse    mix formulated to provide all the nutrients  essential for the health & well-being of your stallions, mares and foals. More info....

BodyBuilda™is an oat-free chaff-based product.
Although of a lower specification than Stud Mix the elevated levels of minerals & vitamins and high quality protein enable this product to be fed successfully to breeding stock. More info...

 HORSEHEATH Working Horse Mix is nutritionally very similar to BodyBuilda™, but has no chaff in it. More info..

Equi-Builda™is primarily intended for maintaining condition in competition horses, but can also be used as part of a stud diet.     More info....     

LinGold™  is a high protein supplement based on Cooked Linseed and Soya. It is extremely effective combined with AntiLam™  and a mineral/vitamin supplement (e.g. Pegavite™)  to provide a diet suitable for a laminitic brood-mare 

Full Fat Soya - typical analysis 35% protein,18% oil, - is useful as a source of top quality protein, essential for optimum muscle development. It is added to hard feed as a supplement.  More info...

Case History

This Pony Mare was in foal to one of Anne Smalley’s stallions. It went very lame seven months before foaling, looked like a toast-rack and was written off by its vet. Its owner was referred to John Chapman for advice, as a result of which it reared a healthy colt foal (which later bit him!) and made a full recovery. It was fed Horseheath AntiLam™ with additional soya and a mineral/vitamin supplement (Pegavite).

“For a number of years I have used BodyBuilda™ as the base feed for all the horses here plus some full-fat soya for any that need a little extra. All our horses like the product and look very well. “

N. b. Sharon has been using BodyBuilda™ since about1998!
                 

GILL FARADAY & Jessica Suffling, Briar Stud (Luton)
"I've been feeding HORSEHEATH PRODUCTS for more years than I care to remember! I've used most of the feeds at different times, with breed types ranging from IRISH DRAUGHTS to Dartmoor ponies. When I was breeding I.D.s the brood mares had Stud Mix; currently the pony foals do well on Body-Builda. This product has proved very effective at improving and maintaining condition for both I.D.s and ponies, with Equi-Builda for problem cases. Equi-Builda has also worked well in optimising gut function. It gave our Welsh Section C an appetite - she used to pick at her food - now she eats as a Native should. Our 17 y.o. Dartmoor mare SHILSTONE ROCKS HANNUCKA won the Ridden Dartmoor Performance Award, fed on Body-Builda.  Her activities included Showing, W.H.P, Dressage, & S/J. She's been to  HOYS twice! I've also used NON-HEATING MIX, and Anti-Lam for ponies where laminitis is a worry."
N.b. Gill thinks she first used Horseheath products about 1987!

 
JAYNE CONNORS, Radnage.  (Now at Pyatt's Farm)
"This foal broke a leg at 6 weeks old, and had to be weaned. On its return from vet school it was fed on Body-Builda and  Equi-Builda. 12 months later it has grown into a fabulous yearling."


A call for help was received from Jayne late on a Friday afternoon in May. The foal had just returned! What to feed it?? She had BodyBuilda & Equi-Builda in stock so was advised to combine the two, effectively providing a high grade Stud Diet!.
