What inspired this vitamunch fibre block?
As a company focused on the horses’ wellbeing, we thought it was only right to look at the mental and nutritional wellbeing of our equine friends too!
What is in vitamunch**?
Not just a simple fibre block, vitamunch fibre blocks are made from dried timothy hay and are also fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, while containing tasty herbs naturally sought by horses in the field:
Dandelion – rich in potassium, magnesium and vitamin A.
Nettles - known for their effect on the circulation, a source of vitamin C and iron.
12 Vitamins - including A, B, C, D, E, as well as biotin, copper and zinc!
Timothy Hay - naturally high in fibre and low in sugar, and super tasty!
*1 vitamunch provides 50% of the published daily requirements for vitamins & trace elements based on a 500kg horse in light work.
**based on the most recent batch
Who is it for?
All horses can enjoy a vitamunch meadow fibre block due to its high fibre and low sugar content, including those prone to laminitis. It is particularly useful:
Horses on box rest.
As a distraction when companions go out.
Ways to feed vitamunch hay blocks.
There is no right or wrong way, it’s whatever works for your horse.
As it’s so tasty, most horses are keen to try gobble it down. Feeding vitamunch in a specialised munch net can help slow down those eager feeders. You can also place it in the middle of their normal haynet, so they spend time trying to hunt down the tasty treat!
For oldies whose teeth don’t quite do as well as they used to, or all horses in the winter, soaking the munch block will see it evolve into a warm, tasty bowl full of delicious goodness, right in front of your eyes!
It can of course be fed in the field or stable on its own on the ground or in a bowl. The highly compressed nature of the block will naturally slow eating down and act as a boredom breaker too!
