If you own a horse that struggles to maintain weight or your horse has started dropping weight, you’ll know how exasperating and expensive it can be. Our Pure Condition mix is perfect for encouraging weight gain and helping to add condition without causing fizzy behaviour. Pure Feed customer Sara knew just how difficult it could be to get a horse to gain weight, particularly when they have a foal at foot. But her mare, Beaujolis gained weight on our Pure Condition mix and they have never looked back.
“She started to put on weight well, despite still feeding a rather greedy foal”
Beaujolis came to me as a 6 yrs old mare with Scoot, her two week old black colt foal at foot . She was lame from a freak accident which was why she had been put in foal. She was imported from the Netherlands at 4 yrs old and is a branded Holstein Pink Paper Mare .
Scoot was a big colt and her first foal so she was looking quite poor and I wanted to get her into better condition. The photos below shows Beau when she arrived.
After a chat with a Pure Feed nutritional expert we decided that Pure Condition Mix would be the best option for her to help encourage weight gain.
These are photos taken 4 weeks after being fed on Pure Condition mix. As you can see her coat gained a sheen very quickly and she started to pick up well despite still feeding a rather greedy foal .
What a difference!
Beau 12 weeks after arriving – What a difference from what arrived!
Sara said “This is Beau 12 months after arriving with me – after monthly sessions with my amazing Physio Beau not only looks amazing thanks to Pure Condition Mix but is also sound and has started a ridden career also.
Thank you to Pure Feed for helping Beau on her road to recovery.
