FAQs

How should I introduce Thunderbrook Healthy Herbal Muesli to my horse?

Introduce the muesli gradually, starting with a small amount mixed with your horse's regular feed. Slowly increase the amount over several days to allow your horse's digestive system to adjust.

Can I feed the muesli to horses with allergies?

Yes, but always check the ingredients list to ensure the muesli doesn't contain anything your horse is allergic to. Introduce it in small amounts and monitor for any adverse reactions.

Is Thunderbrook Healthy Herbal Muesli a complete feed?

No, it is a feed supplement designed to be used with other feeds or supplements. It is not intended to be a sole source of nutrition.

How long does a 15kg bag of muesli typically last?

The duration depends on the amount you feed daily. Following the feeding guidelines, the bag can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months.

Can I soak the muesli before feeding?

Yes, dampening is recommended, but soaking is also an option, particularly if your horse has dental issues or prefers a softer texture.

What is the shelf life of the muesli?

The shelf life is typically several months when stored properly in a cool, dry place. Always check the expiration date on the bag.

Troubleshooting

Horse refuses to eat the muesli.

Try mixing the muesli with a small amount of the horse's regular feed. Ensure it is dampened properly. You can also try adding a small amount of molasses or apple sauce to increase palatability.

Horse develops loose stools after starting the muesli.

Reduce the amount of muesli fed. Gradually increase the amount as the horse adjusts. Ensure the horse has access to plenty of fresh water.

Muesli appears dry and dusty.

Ensure the muesli is stored in a cool, dry place. Dampen the muesli with water before feeding. If the product is old, consider replacing it with a fresh batch.
