AandP Compete and Condition - 20 kg is a high calorie/energy feed for horses and ponies that need to put on or maintain weight and condition. It is also ideal for competition horses and ponies, or those in higher levels of work.
Being whole cereal grain and molasses-free, it is higher in fibre and lower in starch and sugar than traditional conditioning feeds. The energy that AandP Compete and Condition - 20 kg supplies comes from its high fibre and oil content, which is an excellent source of slow-release, stamina-giving energy. It contains a good level of high-quality protein sources, which, alongside exercise, provides the horse with the building blocks for top line development and maintenance. It is a balanced feed that, when fed at recommended amounts according to body weight and workload, will provide the horse with a fully balanced diet inclusive of essential vitamins and minerals. It also contains a probiotic and a blend of prebiotics for healthy digestion, and added linseed, a good source of Omega-3.
It is suitable for horses and ponies in medium to hard work, poor doers struggling to gain or maintain weight, competition horses and ponies needing a higher energy feed, horses and ponies requiring slow-release, stamina-giving energy, horses and ponies struggling to chew due to worn or missing teeth, and horses with intolerances to barley, alfalfa and/or molasses.

Feeding Instructions:
DO NOT FEED DRY –THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS UNMOLASSED SUGAR BEET AND MUST BE SOAKED FOR 10 MINUTES BEFORE FEEDING. Introduce a new feed gradually over 7 to 10 days, building up to the amounts needed to maintain condition and energy levels (0.25 – 5.0kg depending on size, type, workload and condition). Place feed in a shallow bucket, add twice as much water as feed, then stir. Wait for 10 minutes before feeding this product. Unmolassed chaff or soaked Fast Fibre can be added after soaking; if adding unmolassed chaff, stir well before feeding. This feed is not suitable for horses and ponies prone to laminitis. Fast Fibre could be a suitable feed, please call us for more information. Do not feed to sheep. This feed is made from natural ingredients, so it may change colour slightly through the seasons, or take longer to soak. If the feed is not soaking quickly enough, please leave to soak for longer, or soak the feed in warm water, then stir, until it forms a nice soft mash.
IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ: To get the best results from Compete & Condition, please make sure that you do not feed any other products that contain barley or molasses. Many traditional feeds contain barley and/or molasses, which can cause excitability in some horses. Even horses that do not become fizzy as a result of these ingredients can benefit from a low starch and sugar feed such as Compete & Condition.
Please note, all feed amounts are in dry weight, per day. Do not feed more than 2kg (1 1/3 Stubbs Scoops) dry weight per meal.
