Recommended Feeding Practices
-
Change feeds gradually, at a rate of no more than 1 lb. of change per day.
-
Clean water and free choice salt should be provided at all times.
-
Weigh your feed...a "coffee can" of TDI-16 may contain 50% more weight than the same volume of oats.
-
Adequate amounts of hay or pasture (free choice is ideal) should always be fed. Mature horses should receive 1 1/2 to 2% of body weight in hay or pasture each day (example: a typical 1000 lb. horse needs 15 - 20 lbs. per day).
-
Do not mix sweet feeds, oats, or other grains with TDI-16 or TDI-12. It is not advisable to mix different commercial rations together. TDI-16 and TDI-12 are fortified and balanced for optimum nutrition. The addition of other grains only upsets the calcium/phosphorous ratio, cuts the vitamin and mineral levels, and ultimately lessens the expected results.
-
Do not add vitamin/mineral supplements to TDI products. Additional supplementation could cause an imbalance or toxicity of certain key nutrients.
-
Do not feed TDI products to sheep or other copper sensitive species.
