Life this week☀️💥

12/04/2026

We had a mare a few years ago who had very little milk when she foaled. We had heard the reviews about Havens Fertolac and decided to give it a go. She quickly put up a big bag of milk and raised a very big, strong healthy filly foal. Since then all our broodmares have been on it and have all produced huge healthy foals!🍼

When it comes to feeding broodmares, a lot of people default to a standard stud mix — but there’s a big difference in what you’re actually putting into your mares.

⸻

⚖️ Feeding rate

Stud mix (20kg bag):
• Typically fed at 3–5kg per day

HAVENS Horsefeed Ferto-LAC 3 (25kg bag):
• Typically fed at 2–4kg per day

👉 So although both are complete feeds, you generally feed less Ferto-LAC to meet requirements…. MORE VALUE FOR MONEY 💰

⸻

🧪 What’s the difference?

Ferto-LAC 3 is designed specifically for pregnancy & lactation:
The last stages of pregnancy and early lactation are when mares need the most support nutritionally — and this is where Ferto-LAC really delivers:

✔️ Increased energy & protein → supports milk production & condition
✔️ High levels of key amino acids (lysine, methionine, cysteine)
✔️ Balanced Calcium, Phosphorus & Magnesium → correct bone development
✔️ Multi-Calcium-Complex → supports strong joints & skeleton in the foal
✔️ High vitamins + beta-carotene → fertility & immune support
✔️ Added copper → essential for bone & cartilage development

✔️ Suitable through pregnancy, lactation — and even for stallions

⸻

Typical stud mix:
• More cereal-based (oats/barley)
• Lower, more general amino acid profile
• Minerals included but less targeted
👉 Primarily designed for condition and energy, rather than precise development

⸻

🩻 Why it matters

Feeding broodmares isn’t just about keeping them looking well — it’s about setting the foal up properly.

Correct nutrition supports:
• Balanced growth
• Stronger bone and joint development
• More consistent youngstock

👉 All of which plays a role in producing horses that are more likely to pass vettings and X-rays later on.

⸻

💡 Simple takeaway
• Stud mix = higher volume, more general nutrition
• Ferto-LAC 3 = lower volume, more targeted nutrition

👉 It’s not just about feeding more — it’s about feeding what’s actually needed

We have been using Havens Slobber-Mash on the yard for a few months now and it’s quickly become a staple 👏

It’s one of those feeds that just works across the board — young horses, older ones, or anything needing a bit more condition and digestive support.

What makes it different from a typical mash is the actual composition 👇

✔️ Includes lucerne (alfalfa) – a natural buffer in the stomach, helping support horses prone to ulcers
✔️ Added linseed and oils – for condition, coat shine, and slow-release energy
✔️ Oat-free and non-heating
✔️ Highly digestible ingredients like flaked cereals and wheat bran
✔️ Rich in vitamins & minerals

It’s also a complete feed, which is a big one — you’re not having to add loads of extras alongside it to balance the diet. You can keep things simple while still covering condition, gut health, and nutritional requirements.

We’ve found it especially good for keeping condition and shine on our 4-year-olds and sharper horses without adding any extra fizz.

It’s also brilliant for older horses or those with dental issues, as it is really easy to chew and digest, and also gives them all the correct nutrition they need

I also really like it this time of year when horses are moulting — the added oils and nutrients help support coat change and keep them looking well.

Plus, going into seasons where horses are more prone to ulcers, weight loss, and digestive issues, it’s an easy way to support them without overloading with hard feed.

Another bonus is it can be fed wet or dry, so it’s dead practical on a busy yard.

Simple, effective, and actually does what you need it to — whether that’s a Pony Club pony or a top competition horse 👌

Definitely one we’ll be keeping in.

💙💛Delighted to announce our partnership with Havens Horse Feed for the 2026 season! 💙💛

Havens is a brand we are so excited to promote because we genuinely love the products. There are such a diverse range of feeds where you really will find one to suit any horse in the yard, and see a difference! Whether you have a happy hacker, GP jumper, racehorse, or breeding operation there is a feed there that will make a difference. We have fed Havens for years and the difference in our horses-whether it be condition or temperament vs other feeds is stand clear.

Havens products need no introduction but a few highlights…

🔹All HAVENS horsefeed-products are guaranteed to be 100% natural (100% vegetable) and they do NOT contain any ingredients of animal origin (with the exception of milk powder in foal Optigrow). The feed-products are composed of high-quality ingredients in fully balanced formulas and packed in paper bags (20 or 25 kg).

🔹HAVENS Horsefeed was the feed supplier of the three gold-winning jumping horses (Egano, Ratina Z and Top Gun) at the Olympic Games in Barcelona 1992. In 2000, Jeroen Dubbeldam won individual gold at the Olympic Games in Sydney, he also won double gold at WEG2014 and at the European Championships at Aachen2015. HAVENS was yet again the feed supplier of the “golden” jumping horses during the WEG 1996.

🔹HAVENS is the official supplier of some of the world's most prestigious equestrian events, for example the WORLD EQUESTRIAN FESTIVAL CHIO Aachen (Germany) This is Europe's largest equestrian tournament for jumping, dressage and driving. During the WEG2006 and European Championships 2015 (both in Aachen), HAVENS was announced official supplier of all participating horses.

🔹Special composition is made for each feed, based on the requirements, dependent on the utility (sport, recreation, breeding), age, level of effort, etc. The most important ingredients are not only cereals such as black and white oats, corn, barley, wheat, spelt wheat, but also wheat bran, alfalfa, linseed and linseed oil.

🔹The high quality of the raw materials, the large diversity of the ingredients, the innovative production facilities and the consistent recipes make a bag of HAVENS Horsefeed really stand out from other brands.

Please pm us with any queries, or information about supply and we are happy to put you in contact with your local stockist! Deliveries weekly all across Ireland and the UK
