Each bag contains
- High quality fibre to support digestion
- Slow release energy for controlled, non-heating calories
- Vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and trace elements
- High quality protein for topline development
- Low sugar and starch levels
- Biotin for strong hooves and shiny coat
Description
Pure Condition Mix is specifically formulated to improve weight gain and body condition by providing slow-release, non-heating energy from high-quality ingredients such as rapeseed oil, linseed, and unmolassed sugar beet. These ingredients are rich in essential fatty acids and fibre, which provide a steady supply of calories without causing the spikes in energy that can lead to excitability. The oil-based energy sources deliver sustained, controlled release of calories, which is ideal for horses that need to gain weight while maintaining calm behaviour.
In addition to the high-quality ingredients, Pure Condition Mix is a complete feed that contains a natural balancer, providing a full spectrum of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and trace elements. This ensures that all nutritional requirements are met, supporting overall condition, hoof strength, and muscle development. The inclusion of a premium balancer also reduces the need for additional supplements, making it an efficient and cost-effective way to support your horse’s weight gain and overall condition.
As Pure Condition Mix is low in sugar and starch, free from molasses, it is suitable for horses with metabolic issues such as laminitis, EMS and ulcers.
Feeding rate:
400-600g per 100kg body weight depending on condition and work done.
We recommend that you dampen with water before feeding.
Supplied in a 15kg bag

Seeing as it`s a bit chilly this week, you might reach for the kettle to make your horse a delicious warm mash. But avoid using boiling water!
All our complete feeds contain live yeast, a beneficial microbe that:
🩵 Supports a balanced gut microbiome, keeping helpful bacteria thriving
🩵 Aids the digestion of fibre and nutrients
🩵 Helps maintain overall gut stability
As yeast is a living organism, exposing them to high temperatures (around 100°C) denatures their proteins and disrupts their cell membranes, effectively killing them. Once the yeast is dead, it can no longer support digestion or gut health, so all the benefits in your feed are lost.
✅ Tip: always use warm or cool water to soak your feed. This keeps the live yeast alive, ensuring your horse gets the full digestive and gut-supporting benefits of their Pure Feed!

Why does every Pure Feed contains salt?
Salt might sound simple, but it plays a vital role in keeping horses performing and feeling their best. Sodium and chloride, the two minerals that make up salt, are essential electrolytes. They help maintain hydration, muscle function, and nerve signals, and are lost every day through sweat, urine and even breathing.
Every Pure Feed includes salt to replace these daily losses and help support your horse’s natural electrolyte balance. It also helps stimulate thirst, encouraging horses to drink enough to stay hydrated which is especially important after work or during colder months when water intake can drop.
By including salt in every Pure Feed, we make sure your horse’s basic electrolyte needs are met without you needing to add table salt or a separate supplement to the bucket.
It’s one of those simple, clever details that keeps things easy for you and balanced for your horse

Why Veteran feeds are different 👴
As horses age, their bodies change, and so do their nutritional needs. That’s why our Veteran range is formulated differently from our standard feeds:
🔬 Fibre: softer chaff in the Mix, and pellets that soak into a mash, making them easier to chew and digest.
🔬 Protein: higher levels to support muscle maintenance, as older horses can lose muscle tone more easily.
🔬 Balancer: extra vitamins and minerals to compensate for reduced digestive efficiency.

Ever wondered what the Pure Feed team use with their own horses? Meet Tara, Elise (Head of Nutrition ) Irish Sport Horse.
Since arriving three years ago, Tara has been fed on Pure Balance. She’s a classic good doer with plenty of natural energy, so Pure Balance provides everything she needs without unnecessary calories or any fizz. Elise always jokes that the only part of Tara that’s ID is her ability to gain weight … and the mountain of hair she grows each winter!
Despite being in full work and competing up to BE Novice and BS Foxhunter, Pure Balance supplies all the vitamins and minerals Tara needs. It’s a great reminder that the label on a feed bag is a guide, not a rulebook - the right choice depends on the horse in front of you!

Do you know how much your horse actually weighs?
There are a few different ways to find out:
• Weighbridge – the most accurate method.
• Weigh tape – handy and affordable, but results can vary.
• Measurements & calculations – a useful estimate if no other tools are available.
👉 Knowing your horse’s weight can help you:
• Feed the correct daily ration
• Dose wormers accurately
• Track changes in condition over time, for example, spotting weight loss before it’s obvious.
However, weight isn’t the whole picture. A horse’s health and performance are better reflected by a combination of weight, body condition scoring, and muscle tone. A fit eventer and a good doer native might weigh the same but look very different!

Just because it’s cold doesn’t mean your horse isn’t sweating!
Recovery mashes aren`t just a summer gimmick; winter training pushes muscles, burns energy, and makes your horse lose vital nutrients, just like in summer. Your horse still loses essential electrolytes in sweat, muscles still burn, and the whole body is working hard.
Pure Refuel is formulated to give your horse the support they need after training hard:
Electrolytes to replace what sweat takes out and keep hydration balanced.
Antioxidants to combat exercise-induced stress and speed recovery.
Key amino acids to maintain muscle, support strength, and keep your horse in peak condition.
Plus Refuel tastes irresitble, soaks in 5 minutes, and is suitable for horses with EMS, ulcers and Cushings! 🍒

✅ Highly digestible fibre & oil for slow-release energy
✅ Built-in balancer with essential vitamins & minerals
✅ Gut balancer to optimise digestion
✅ Soft, easy-to-chew pellets for worn teeth
💡 It’s a complete feed, no extra supplements needed. Just feed alongside forage and help your older horse stay strong, shiny, and comfortable into their senior years.

Worried about fireworks this autumn? Here are our top tips:
1. Plan Ahead
Check local fireworks schedules and speak with neighbours or your council to know when displays are expected. Planning turnout, stabling, and feeding around these dates can reduce stress.
2. Create a Safe Environment
If possible, move your horse away from fireworks. Check fencing and your fields for hazards. For stabled horses, ensure the stable is secure, ventilated, and free from sharp objects. Leaving boots on overnight can help protect legs.
3. Distraction is Key
Keep horses occupied with ample forage, toys, or treat balls. Pure Meadow Mash or Pure Treats in a treat ball can be fed in larger portions to distract and comfort horses. Soft background sounds, like classical music or nature tracks, can help mask fireworks.
4. Use Calming Products Wisely
Discuss with your vet about calming supplements such as magnesium or herbal remedies. Pheromone sprays can also reduce stress by mimicking natural calming signals.
5. Maintain Consistent Routines
Stick to normal feeding, turnout, and exercise schedules. Familiarity is reassuring. Leaving a light on in the stable can help reduce the impact of flashing fireworks.
6. Stay Calm and Reassuring
Horses pick up on handler emotions. Stay relaxed, use gentle strokes, and avoid loud voices or sudden movements. Remember that frightened horses can act unpredictably.
7. Observe and Adapt
Each horse reacts differently. Some may benefit from early feeding, others from larger soaked fibre portions before fireworks start. Adjust based on behaviour and stress levels.
8. Consult a Professional if Needed
If your horse shows severe anxiety, speak to your vet as they can offer alternative solutions to help keep your horse calm.

With Halloween coming up, may horse owners want to know "Can Horses Eat Pumpkins?" 🎃
Want your horse to join in the Halloween fun? Or perhaps you have a few pumpkins going spare after carving. But yes, your horse can eat pumpkin! Pumpkins are mostly water and fibre, low in starch, and packed with beta-carotene (a pro-vitamin A). ✅ That makes them a crunchy, gut-friendly snack!
But seeds in huge quantities can be difficult for your horse to digest! We recommend cutting up a few chunks of the Pumpkin and feeding it seed free.
Got a question regarding equine nutrition? Leave it in the comments, we would be more than happy to help 😊

🎃 Trick or Treat… But Watch Out for Hidden Sugars!
Halloween is here, and your horse might be expecting a few treats. But beware… not all treats are as innocent as they look. Some hide sinister sugars under friendly names like molasses, glucose syrup or cane sugar!
Why care? These sneaky sugars are non-structural carbohydrates (NSC), which can spike blood glucose and insulin. For sugar-sensitive horses, ponies prone to laminitis, or those with EMS or Cushing’s, that’s a recipe for a very scary vet bill. 💀
Molasses is especially sneaky: sweet, sticky, and rapidly fermentable in the hindgut. Too much, and it can disrupt digestion, alter gut microbes, and even cause colic.
Pure Feed treats, on the other hand, are all treat and no trick. Low-starch, fibre-rich, and free from hidden sugars, they support the hindgut function while still being delicious!
You can find out more about Pure Treats on our website!

How do I choose the right calorie level for my horse? 🤷
To get this right, it helps to look at the numbers.
Baseline energy needs ⚡️
An average 500 kg horse at rest needs around 65–70 MJ (megajoules) of digestible energy (DE) per day just to maintain bodyweight.
Add light work (e.g. hacking 3–4 times a week), and this rises to 75–85 MJ/day.
Moderate work (e.g. regular schooling, low-level eventing) pushes it to 90–100 MJ/day.
Harder workloads (e.g. advanced eventing, racing) can exceed 120 MJ/day.
Winter factor ❄️
Once temperatures dip below the horse’s lower critical temperature (around 0–5°C for a horse with a winter coat), requirements increase by ~2–2.5% for every degree drop. That means on a frosty night at –5°C, a horse may need an extra 15–20 MJ/day simply for staying warm.
What does that look like in feed?🐎
Grass (summer grazing): Good grass provides ~10 MJ DE per kg of dry matter. A horse can easily meet 80–100 MJ/day on grass alone.
Hay: Average meadow hay sits around 7–9 MJ DE per kg of dry matter. To meet 80 MJ, a horse would need 9–11 kg of hay (dry weight) daily, which is achievable but often limited by hay quality or feeding practices.
Why does this matter? 🤔
If the diet falls short, the horse mobilises fat (and eventually muscle) to make up the difference, which is why condition loss is so common in winter. On the other hand, oversupplying calories can lead to unwanted weight gain and metabolic strain in good doers.
How Pure Feed helps 🩵
Because our complete feeds combine fibre, oil, and a full balancer in every bag, they deliver calories in the same slow-release form the horse’s gut evolved to use. That means:
You can top up forage rations with controlled calories.
You know vitamins and minerals are always covered.
You can choose the right calorie level across our range, from Pure Easy for good doers to Pure Condition Mix for horses needing more support. With no hidden ingredients, preservatives or molasses, there`s a Pure Feed for your horse.

Hay: Average meadow hay sits around 7–9 MJ DE per kg of dry matter. To meet 80 MJ, a horse would need 9–11 kg of hay (dry weight) daily, which is achievable but often limited by hay quality or feeding practices.
Why does this matter? 🤔
If the diet falls short, the horse mobilises fat (and eventually muscle) to make up the difference, which is why condition loss is so common in winter. On the other hand, oversupplying calories can lead to unwanted weight gain and metabolic strain in good doers.
How Pure Feed helps 🩵
Because our complete feeds combine fibre, oil, and a full balancer in every bag, they deliver calories in the same slow-release form the horse’s gut evolved to use. That means:
You can top up forage rations with controlled calories.
You know vitamins and minerals are always covered.
You can choose the right calorie level across our range, from Pure Easy for good doers to Pure Condition Mix for horses needing more support. With no hidden ingredients, preservatives or molasses, there`s a Pure Feed for your horse.
