Horslyx Smallholder
Typically, forage alone will not supply the correct amount or balance of required minerals, vitamins or trace element as required by the ruminant. Smallholder Block corrects nutrient deficiencies in all types of forage to ensure a balanced diet for all types of ruminant stock from a pygmy goat to a cow. Unlike the equine focussed Horslyx Balancers, Smallholder block contains added cobalt which is a trace element key to produce Vitamin B12 within the rumen. Diets deficient in cobalt lead to poorer ruminant performance and as a consequence ruminants will not thrive.
Smallholder Block stimulates forage intakes and improves forage digestibility so greater reliance can be placed on home grown forages. Forage is the cheapest form of feed for ruminants and as such increasing the efficiency of utilisation is key to reducing the overall costs within the feeding system. Horslyx Smallholder Block does not displace feed intake unlike other feed licks.
Smallholder Block contains powerful antioxidants including Zinc, Selenium and Vitamin E to support and maintain a healthy immune system. Smallholder block does not contain added copper making it suitable to offer to all ruminants. As with all Horslyx products Smallholder block should be offered in multiple units, spread across the paddock/pen, when there are two or more animals, this reduces competition and consumption.
Smallholder Block improves animal health and performance by providing all the nutrients likely to be deficient in forage, this coupled with the unique production process which enhances forage utilisation within the rumen makes Horslyx Smallholder block the number one choice for supplementation within the smallholder environment.
