Contains KER BMC®, a unique bio-available calcium, with supporting chelated minerals, research proven to improve bone density, provide gastric buffering and minimise acidity in the hindgut
Trace mineral and vitamin levels ensure optimal foetal development and growth in foals, weanlings and yearlings
Mineral fortification ensures strong bones in growing foals and helps prevent Developmental Orthopaedic Disease
High quality protein and amino acid balance for optimal growth and development
Contains natural yeast culture to enhance digestion and mineral absorption
Contains organic chromium to enhance reproductive efficiency and glucose utilisation
Contains extra calcium for high oxalate pastures eg kikuyu
Premium blend of quality grains and ingredients used to maximise finished feed quality and palatability
Pelleting improves energy utilisation from grains and reduces waste of powdered minerals and vitamins

The above table is a guide only and the amount fed should be adjusted according to the horse’s age, temperament, condition, bodyweight and workload.
Studmaster® should be fed in conjunction with a minimum of 1% body weight of good quality roughage in the form of pasture, hay or chaff
Studmaster® should be introduced slowly to the diet over 7 days
The amount fed should be divided into at least two feeds daily, with a maximum of 3kg of Studmaster® per feed
If young horses are overweight or suffer from Developmental Orthopaedic Disease reduce the amount of Studmaster® fed and seek veterinary and nutritional advice.
Clean, fresh water should be available at all times
