a year ago
1 Answer
  • A: Thank you for your inquiry. A typical Clydesdale yearling is generally 400-600 pounds. The feeding recommendation is minimum .75 lbs. per 100 pounds of body weight - so for 500 pounds roughly 4 pounds/day SafeChoice Mare and Foal ideally fed in 2 meals.

Q: I am rescuing a mini jennet foal who is 2.5 months old. Would this be a good choice to feed since she's lost her mother's milk?

5 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: Congratulations on your mini jennet foal rescue. The SafeChoice Mare & Foal would be a good choice of feed to supplement the nutrients that she would usually get from her mother's milk. You can offer the mare & foal feed as a creep feed (free choice) in a feeder, so she can nibble on it throughout the day as needed up until 4 to 6 months of age then transition to feeding 1.5 to 1.75 lbs per 100 lbs of bodyweight per day split into two feedings, with hay and/or pasture.

Q: Would this feed be good for a 2 year old?

2 Answers
  • A: You can feed SafeChoice Mare and Foal horse feed to your 2 year. It would meet nutritional and energy requirements when fed at suggested feeding rates. If you don't have other horses already on the SafeChoice mare and foal, and you are asking what would be the best choice for your 2 year old, I would recommend SafeChoice Original.

Most Helpful Favorable Review

Pricey but worth it....

12 years ago
Mare out of pasture on forage and costal hay at 8 to 9 months into pregnancy. Started with one pound twice a day for a few days with free access to costal hay. With no problems noted increased to 2 pounds twice a day for a week and now three pounds. No sign of problems. Vet suggests taking her up to 8 pounds a day and to 10 pounds a day after foaling for about a month and then a slow reduction. She is just short of 15 hands and about 1200 pounds right now. This is going to get expensive but worth it to get a healthy foal.

MARE AND FOAL WATCH OUT

12 years ago
This feed is not what it is cracked up to be - is not nearly as good as other more expensive brands - you get what you pay for I guess. Beware - of starting any new feed with your horse(s) that the dealer will always have this feed in stock - as with my TSC store ran out and wont' have any more until next Weds., IF it even gets on the truck - had to switch feeds, no warning, no roll over time - lets hope noone gets sick over it, colics, or dies. Nutrena ALL STOCK 12% should NEVER be fed to horses(although it says for horses) - not if you want to keep your horse healthy -

Nutrena mare weanling and a yearling.

3 months ago
I'm feeding a mare, weanling, and a 2 year old. I also feed alfalfa and they have large professionally planted pastures with the top 6 legumes and grasses in them. This is a really great feed! No complaints. If you aren't using it I definitely give it a 2 week trial. It's DEFINITELY worth it!!

Healthy Mares and Foals

My broodmares prefer and thrive on SafeChoice Mare & Foal. I tried another brand prior to Nutrena and they were not eating it well. SafeChoice Mare & Foal is palatable but above all else I know my mares and growing foals are getting the nutrition and nutrients they need to thrive.

Affordable and my horse loves it!

I recently started my horse on Mare & Foal per my vet's recommendation to rebuild muscle and gain weight after a bad Lyme flare up. It has been about 1 month since starting feeding Nutrena's SafeChoice Mare & Foal and I believe I am seeing good results thus far. The palatability is excellent and formulation seems more than adequate for my needs. My horse gobbles it up and begs for more. Best of all-it's reasonably priced. I look forward to seeing what progress we can make with this feed.

Best Mare & Foal Feed ever

a year ago
I switched to Nutrena Mare & Foal when my colt turned 3 months. I was feeding Purina 300 but my mare just kept losing weight after the birth. They've been eating Nutrena Mare & Foal for 3 weeks now and she's putting weight back on slowly but steadily. Mom and son love the taste and are looking great!

I have been feeding Nutrena Mare & Foal each year I have bred my mare (on foal # 5). I start feeding prior to foaling and through weaning. This product helps my mare maintain her weight and nutritional levels while foaling and nursing, the foal also benefits. The formulation of this product provides a good level of nutrition while being highly digestible for the foal. I am pleased with this products ingredient and how it presents on the horses.

Yes, I recommend this product.
