Feeding guide: Feed up to 2 blocks per day
There is no right or wrong way, it’s whatever works for your horse.
As its so tasty, most horses are keen to try gobble it down. Feeding vitamunch in a specialised munch net can help slow down those eager feeders. You can also place it in the middle of their normal haynet, so they spend time trying to hunt down the tasty treat!
For oldies whose teeth don’t quite do as well as they used to, or all horses in the winter, soaking the munch block will see it evolve into a warm, tasty bowl full of delicious goodness, right in front of your eyes!
It can of course be fed in the field or stable on its own on the ground or in a bowl. The highly compressed nature of the block will naturally slow eating down and act as a boredom breaker too!
All horses can enjoy a vitamunch hedgerow fibre block due to its high fibre and low sugar content, including those prone to laminitis. It is particularly useful:
As a boredom breaker
Encouraging natural foraging in the stable when turnout is limited
Topping up essential vitamins & minerals
To slow food intake with its highly compressed nature
As a smaller (and tastier!) alternative to hay when travelling
Keeping horses occupied at competition
Horses on box rest
As a distraction when companions go out
