Shawnee Senior Equine is a complete feed specifically formulated as a maintenance diet for the older horse. It can be fed dry or in the case of severe teeth problems, it can be mixed with warm water and allowed to set 10 to 15 minutes. Then drain off the excess water and feed as a wet mash. Feeding of hay or pasture is optional.
Shawnee Senior Equine is a highly palatable feed that is easily digested, making it easier to maintain aged horses.
When making ration changes, make them gradually over a period of 7 to 10 days. Have plenty of fresh, clean water available at all times.
Store in a dry, well ventilated area, protected from rodents and insects. Do not feed moldy or insect infested feed to animals, as it may cause illness.
