Troubleshooting
Horse is being picky and not eating the flowers.
Try dampening the feed slightly or mixing the flowers into a small amount of damp chaff to prevent them from settling at the bottom of the bucket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using this supplement, simply weigh out the appropriate amount based on your horse's weight. As the product is supplied as dried flowers, it is highly compatible with most forage-based or concentrate feed regimens. Always store the product in a cool, dry place and keep the bag tightly sealed to preserve the integrity and aromatic qualities of the herbs. Because no scoop is provided, it is best to dedicate a small kitchen scale or a plastic measuring cup to this product to ensure you remain within the 15-30g daily feeding range.
