The above feeding recommendations provide for appropriate vitamin/mineral fortification according to body weight. For desired body condition, adjust grain inclusion (oats, corn, barley) to provide additional calories.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
The above feeding recommendations assume a horse is consuming a minimum of 1.5 to 2% of its body weight in hay or pasture.
Provide salt and plenty of fresh, clean water at all times. Keep product fresh in cool, dry storage. Examine product daily. DO NOT use if old, moldy or contaminated with insects.

My easy keepers are definitely being taken care of with balancer. I only have to feed a pound to know that the needs are being met when out in pasture all summer.
I’ve been feeding Triple Crown for several years now. I’ve tried my fair share of other brands but nothing compares to how well Triple Crown makes my horses look. Since my horses are on a forage-only diet, the Balancer gives them that extra little boost of vitamins and minerals they don’t receive from forage. It gives them a shiny coat and overall they feel amazing! I tell everyone to feed the ration balancer along with Triple Crown in general.
Absolutely love this product for everyone in the herd! It gives them 100% of everything they need without all the junk! I'll continue to feed this!!
A year ago I switched from Purina Strategy to Triple Crown Balancer and my quarter horse has been doing great on it. Maintaining his weight.
I use the Balancer for my easy keeper 19 year old Tennessee Walker and he loves it! I love that he gets the nutrients that he doesn’t get out of hay, but it's low starch/sugar, so he doesn’t get too fat!

1. One cellulase unit (CU) is defined as the amount of activity that will produce a relative fluidity change of 1 (determined with a calibrated viscometer) in 5 minutes in a defined carboxymethylcellulose substrate at pH 4.5 and 40°C.
2. One hemoglobin unit (HUT) of proteolytic (protease) activity is defined as that amount of enzyme that produces, in one minute under the specified conditions, a hydrolysate whose absorbance at 275nm is the same as that of a solution containing 1.10g per mL of tyrosine in 0.006N hydrochloric acid.
3. All Triple Crown feeds have fixed ingredient formulas. Values reflect an estimated analysis of multiple feed samples from across the U.S. with the understanding that geographic differences can impact the results. Estimated values determined by Equi-Analytical, Ithaca, NY.
