Foals and Horses

Silky Coat Instant Foal Milk Replacer (Free Choice)

An excellent complete milk protein formula made with human grade ingredients, human-edible lard and coconut oil, soluble vitamins, chelated trace minerals, selenium and zinc proteinate that matches or surpasses the specifications of mare's milk.

Non-medicated only.

Use as a complete substitute for mare's milk or as a supplement to mare's milk whenever it is unavailable or inadequate. It can be fed manually or cold, free-choice  to save labor and to maximize the foal's growth potential. It will stay preserved up to 24 hours. If fed free choice, foals will consume twice as much liquid feed at a more natural pace than if fed twice a day. Feed colostrum from the mare for up to three days if possible, and wean from milk replacer at three months of age.

Silky Coat Pellets

There are sound economic advantages to weaning a foal early even if the mare produces an adequate milk supply. Many professionals know that early weaning pays when the mare is sent out for breeding or is shown extensively. They've also eliminated the risk of a highly susceptible foal picking up a deadly disease or injury during transport or breeding.

When fed according to the directions, Silky Coat Pellets will encourage early dry feed consumption and provide excellent nutrition for early weaning foals. They are a supplement for mare's milk with nutrients comparable to those provided by her during weaning.

Non-medicated only. Fortified with MOS, FOS and active yeast, these unique mini-pellets provide extra milk-based nutrition and high energy for foals, broodmares, stallions, sale and show horses. The natural taste appeal of the 50% milk and whey products, soy flour, and 10% high quality fat provides excellent supplemental nutrition to produce stronger, healthier foals and better conditioned horses that will place higher and sell better with enhanced appearance and glossy hair coat.
