GAIN Equestrian Cubes

Our Stud Range

The GAIN Stud Range provides a specifi c feed for all stages of reproduction, lactation and growth. This range is designed to cater for foals, weanlings, yearlings, mares and stallions and is scientifi cally formulated to meet their critical nutrient requirements at various stages. Precise feeding of broodmares during gestation and lactation and then of youngstock during growth and development is vital in order to maintain optimal growth, health and well-being.

Key Requirements For Breeding Stock

• High quality protein is necessary to ensure optimal skeletal growth and development throughout gestation, as well as ensuring youngstock have the building blocks for good bone and muscle development during their early life. • Bio-available trace minerals maximise availability to the horse and are pivotal in ensuring normal bone growth and development. • Digestible energy sources ensure that the horse’s requirements are easily met during stages of the life-cycle where there is a large demand on the body’s energy reserves, such as during early lactation for the mare, weaning for foals and the breeding season for stallions. • High levels of Vitamin E nutritionally support the reproductive system. • A choice of more concentrated feeds is essential when low intakes are required such as for an overweight mare, active breeding stallions and overtopped youngstock. • Good levels of biotin, methionine and Zinc are necessary to nutritionally maintain healthy hoof growth. • High fi bre and oil levels are necessary to maintain a healthy digestive system and keep the horse’s coat in good condition. • Proviox a natural plant antioxidant, is important for supporting Vitamin E utilisation.
