Instructions:
GENERAL To aid in maximum growth and development, add 2 ounces (four (4) heaping tablespoons) of Grow Colt to daily ration for each foal. Continue administering daily throughout the foal's first year of development. Provides 27 important vitamin and mineral nutrients. Administering BEFORE WEANING To avoid setbacks resulting from weaning and to speed early development, the foal should be given some supplementary feed while still nursing the mare. Usually the foal can start eating small amounts of feed when he is two to three weeks old. Creep feeding - in which the newborn foal can feed on grain and hay separately from the mare - is highly recommended. Administering AFTER WEANING Foals are usually weaned at four to six months of age. At weaning, separate the foal from the mare and administer him 1 to 1 1/2 lbs. of hay per 100 lbs. of body weight. Also administer 2 ounces of Grow Colt daily. The weaning period is the most critical time for feeding the growth supplement. Similarly the grain ration is quite critical. Three suggested grain rations for the weanling foal are outlined below: Recommended Grain Formulas for WEANLING FOALS TO ONE YEAR (Ingredients for 40-pound batch) Ration No. 1 Ration No. 2 Ration No. 3 Oats: 12 lbs.

Administer 3/4 to 1 lb. of grain daily with fresh legume hay You can also add brown sugar to each of these rations to encourage the foal to start eating grain as early as possible. Your choice of rations will, of course, depend on the cost and availability of various grains.
