Always split the Heygates’ feed into at least two feeds per day, preferably three or four, and avoid feeding within one hour of exercise. Never give more than 2kg per feed.
Clean fresh water should always be available to your horse.

When feeding at grass the Heygates’ feed can be reduced by at least half but always make any changes gradually.

All equines are individuals and it is advisable to monitor and adjust the feeding regime to match the requirements of your own horse or pony.
