Kentucky Equine Research's Bone Food_plus supplies the essential building blocks to optimise bone development, health and strength. Calcium, phosphorus and magnesium are the main structural components of bone. Low dietary calcium and phosphorus can lead to weakening of bones in horses, especially performance horses, stabled horses, lactating mares and growing horses. Bone Food_plus also contains vitamin D, vitamin K, zinc, copper and manganese which all play an important role in bone development.

Features & Benefits

Magnesium to assist with magnesium deficiency which may occur when horses are fed high grain, low roughage diets, whilst sweating heavily or when factors interfere with magnesium absorption.

Vitamin D plays a key role in calcium and phosphorus absorption and is an important nutrient for stabled horses where it plays a vital role in bone health.

The role of vitamin K in bone development has been recognised and it is an important nutrient in horses deprived of green grass.

Zinc, copper and manganese are important trace minerals which play a role in bone development. Levels in grains and forages are often deficient, so a supplementary source is required.

The following amounts should be fed daily and divided equally amongst feeds. Mix well into a damp feed.

20 – 40g (1/2 – 1 heaped scoop): Ponies requiring mineral supplementation
40 – 80g (1 – 2 heaped scoops): Ponies grazing on tropical pasture
40 – 80g (1 – 2 heaped scoops): Horses requiring mineral supplementation
80 – 160g (2 -4 heaped scoops): Horses grazing on tropical pasture

Note: These recommendations are for horses with a mature body weight of 500kg. Please adjust according to the weight of your horse.
