Because balancing your horse’s nutrition will improve your horse’s health and wellbeing - long term.

Starting at the beginning, good quality roughage will be the basis of your horse’s feed – in the form of hay or grazing grass and pasture. However, most of these pastures or hays are low in essential protein and minerals, leaving your horse with some deficiencies.

And considering the increase of rain we have had recently, these rapid growing grasses look lush and green, however their feed value is less than perfect.

(Most regions are deficient in key minerals like Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Copper, Zinc, Selenium and Iodine)

The natural way to feed a horse is grazing grass and pasture in the paddock. Unfortunately, grass and pastures are often low in essential protein and minerals, meaning your horse may not be as healthy as you think!

With most Australian regions deficient in key minerals like Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Copper, Zinc, Selenium and Iodine, the paddocked horse is often depleted in these essential nutrients.

To keep your horses as healthy as it can be, choose the EqNC Premium Horse Lick Block.

It is highly mineralied, built specifically for horses in Australian conditions. Providing the highest levels of vitamins and minerals to meet the paddocked horse's daily needs, and containing less than 7% sugars and starch, the EqNC Premium Lick block is possibly one of the healthiest mineralised lick blocks available.

Big Head is caused due to an imbalance of the Calcium (Ca) to Phosphorus (P) ratio within the available feed.

Looking at the ideal Ca to P ratio of 2 to 1 for horses, the EqNC Premium Horse Lick and Bites are formulated with 8.3% of Calcium to 4.2% of Phosphorus, which is very close to this ideal ratio. (EqNC Premium Lick ratio: 1.98 Cal to 1 P).

Consequently, the Lick and Bites provide a great starting point to correct existing imbalances for your horse or pony.

Chromium greatly enhances the effectiveness of insulin to clear glucose from the blood. This process is highly important for horses with some insulin resistance.

Chromium has also been shown to enhance lean body mass and assists in tissue and muscle development which is important for the powerful performance horse!

Australian formulated for Australian conditions and manufactured here in Australia, you can rest assured, your horse stays healthy and happy!

The EqNC Premium Horse Lick and Bites contain the amino acid Lysine.

Lysine is particularly important to ensure the efficient build-up of muscle protein!

Lysine is also the reason for the distinct smell of the EqNC Premium Horse Lick and Bites.

If your horse is not used to it, please be patient, usually your horse will adjust and thoroughly enjoy the Premium Horse Lick and Bites after a few days!

When considering supplementing trace elements (focusing on Iron, Copper, Zinc and Manganese) the correct balance of these are of utmost importance to avoid negative interactions with each other. With most Australian Soils already high in Iron, Iron is NOT actually added to the EqNC Premium Horse Lick and Bites as a separate trace mineral.

The reported inclusion rate of 137mg/kg is obtained through the natural iron content from the Dried Distillers Grain (DDG), Canola Meal, Limestone and Phosphorus source of the EqNC Premium Horse Lick and Bites!

Make sure to check your Horse’s Lick Block and supplement mineral concentration!

Remember: “More is not always better!” Supplement your horse the balanced way, using the EqNC Premium Horse Lick or Bites!
