Equis® Complete

Complete feed

Life stage: All life stages

Features & benefits

  • Equis Complete is a viable noxious weed seed free product. It can be used as the horse’s complete diet when traveling in regulated areas such as National Forests.
  • Equis Complete can replace all or part of the horse’s forage and concentrate diet. Talk to your veterinarian or a nutritionist before substituting more than 50% of the diet with any complete, pelleted feed.
  • Includes Alltech® BioMOS®, Diamond V Yeast Culture®, Nuwen Calsea Powder Advance at manufacturer’s recommended levels for your horse’s digestive wellness and immune balance through nutritional excellence.
  • Equis Complete features SelPlex® from Alltech® as a natural yeast derived selenium source due to the low availability of this trace mineral in some forages.
  • Includes Zinpro® 4-Plex EQ Performance Minerals®. Equis feeds contain complexed trace minerals including zinc, manganese, copper and cobalt. These minerals may only be required in small amounts each day, but they play a critical role in numerous metabolic functions that affect the health of the horse.
