Triple Crown Balancer Gold is a highly fortified vitamin/mineral supplement with no soy and no molasses for horses of any age. Ideal for easy keepers, Balancer Gold can be used to balance pasture and/or hay, improve nutrition in diets when feeding below the recommended feeding rate or when mixing with whole grains (corn, oats, barley).
Triple Crown Balancer Gold goes beyond by providing: Enhanced gastric support with a seaweed-derived calcium source, optimal amino acid balance with added whey protein and improved blood glucose resposiveness from Chromium. Balancer Gold is also soy-free.

Feeding Directions
BALANCING PASTURE AND/OR HAY
| 600 lb. | 0.5 - 0.75 lb./day |
| 900 lb. | 0.75 - 1 lb./day |

| Weanlings 400 - 600 lb. | 0.5 - 0.75 lb./day |
| Yearlings 700 - 800 lb. | 1 lb./day |
The above feeding recommendations assume a horse is consuming a minimum of 1.50 to 2% of its body weight in hay or pasture for appropriate vitamin/mineral fortification according to body weight. Horse’s needs may vary based on age, work level, metabolism, weather and other factors.
BALANCING UNFORTIFIED GRAIN DIETS*
| 600 lb. | .50 - 0.75 lb./day |

| Weanlings 400 - 600 lb. | 0.5 - 0.75 lb./day |
| Yearlings 700 - 800 lb. | 1 lb./day |
*For desired body condition, adjust the amount of forage or unfortified concentrate inclusion (oats, corn, barley, rice bran, beet pulp) up or down to adjust caloric intake. If more than the recommended amount of Triple Crown Balancer Gold is needed to maintain body condition, consider switching to Triple Crown Lite or adding a Triple Crown performance or senior feed.

| 900 lb. | 0.50 - 0.75 lb./day |
| 1,100 lb. | 0.75 - 1 lb./day |
| 1,300 lb. | 1.5 - 2 lb. per day |
| Weanlings 400 - 600 lb. | 0.50 - 0.75 lb./day |
