TopSpec Stud Feed Balancer 20kg – For Broodmares, Stallions and Youngstock TopSpec Stud Feed Balancer is the stud-specific member of the TopSpec balancer range, formulated for the animals with the highest and least forgiving nutritional demands — broodmares through late pregnancy and lactation, and young horses laying down bone and frame. Like all balancers, it is fed in small quantities and works by topping up what forage cannot supply, rather than by adding bulk calories. That is exactly what you want for growing stock, where pushing energy intake to get nutrient intake is the classic route to developmental problems.
