Feeding Instructions

Feed Equilibrium Optimal as the sole ration to easy keeping mares, foals and stallions to provide minerals and vitamins. Feed according to the following table, whereby the lower quantity meets minimum vitamin and mineral requirements and the higher quantity meets Purina Superior Recommendations. Feed in conjunction with water and a minimum of 1% body weight (on a dry matter basis) of a long stemmed forage (hay/pasture). Provide salt free‑choice.

1. Equilibrium Optimal may also be fed as a top dress in conjunction with a Purina feed for mares, foals and stallions that are not being fed the recommended amount of a Purina horse Feed. Provide 0.200 kg to 0.300 kg of Equilibrium Optimal for every kilogram below the recommended amount of a complete Purina Horse Feed.
2. Never feed more than the recommended amount without consultation from a Purina sales consultant.
3. Provide a source of fresh, clean water at all times.
4. Follow sound management practices along with disease and sanitation control measures. If there are any questions, contact your veterinarian, Purina dealer or Purina sales consultant.

CAUTION Directions for use must be carefully followed. Feed is perishable. Store in a dry, well‑ventilated area protected from rodents and insects. Do not feed moldy or insect‑infested feed to animals as it may cause illness, abortion or death.
