EqNC Premium
Horse Lick and Bites

AUSTRALIAN MADE FOR AUSTRALIAN CONDITIONS!

The EqNC Premium Horse Lick is a Vitamin and Mineral supplement, formulated and produced specifically for horses. It provides the highest levels of vitamins and minerals to meet the paddocked horse’s daily needs. It contains less than 7% sugars and starch, making it safe for laminitic and EMS prone horses.

 

And for all horse and pony owners, who prefer to hand feed daily, the same premium formulation is also available as pellet with the EqNC Premium Horse Bites, to be easily portioned. 

​

Why should you feed a vitamin and mineral lick or supplement to your horse?

​

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 isn’t as healthy as you may think it is. 

​

With most regions deficient in key minerals like Calcium, Phosphorous, Magnesium, Copper, Zinc, Selenium and Iodine, the paddocked horse is often depleted in these essential minerals; and this is when there is good feed in the paddock!

​

With Australia classified as the driest, inhabited continent in the world, dry weather and droughts are a common occurrence. When grass and pasture is dry and sparse, not only are these essential minerals greatly lacking, the quality and quantity of vitamins is greatly depleted too. While hay can fill the void energy-wise, it is often lacking in quality protein, minerals and vitamins.

 

Consequently, to keep your horse in excellent health, choose a well balanced Vitamin and Mineral Lick or Supplement.
