Will Meta Safe® cause excess weight gain on my already fat pony?

Meta Safe® is a concentrated feed meaning you can feed less and still meet all of your horse's vitamin and mineral requirements, alongside their roughage. This makes Meta Safe® perfect for the good doing horse! 

I have a poor doer, is Meta Safe® suitable for my horse?

Perhaps not. Meta Safe® is a concentrate option with a low feeding rate designed for the good doing horse. If you have a horse that is prone to laminitis or has any other metabolic conditions and is a poor doer, consider Zero® instead.

Do I need to add a supplement alongside Meta Safe®?

We do always recommend adding salt directly into your horse's diet. This ensures the horse is meeting their sodium and chloride requirements and encourages water consumption year round! You do not need to add a vitamin and mineral supplement as long as you are feeding according to the guidelines. Meta Safe® is a fully fortified feed. Other supplements may be beneficial depending on your horse's individual circumstance. If you are interested in adding a supplement into your horse's diet you can book a phone consultation with one of our Nutrition Advisors or submit your horse's diet to our diet analysis platform, NUTRIKEY.
