Here are 5 facts every owner should know:
✔️ Horses need fibre every single day.

The horse evolved over thousands of years on the Eurasian Steppes to eat one type of food: grass. Today the modern horse still needs eat excellent quality fibre from grass and other sources such as lucerne, beet pulp and high fibre concentrates. In this article we share all you need to know about fi...

A new year means your horse is one year older. Do you have a horse between 1 and 3 years old? Then these are the key points to pay attention to:
👉 Growth slows down, reducing the need for energy and protein
👉 Trace elements such as copper, zinc and manganese remain crucial for strong bones and a healthy musculoskeletal system
👉 The digestive system continues to develop, supporting a strong natural immunity
Cavalor Juniorix is tailored to this phase: an optimal Ca/P ratio, added magnesium and trace elements and live yeasts and fermentable fibres to support a healthy gut flora. This helps ensure a balanced, gradual growth and lays a strong foundation for the future. 🤩

Fibre is essential for your horse’s overall health. Most fibre comes from forage, but concentrates can also provide targeted extra support — making them a valuable addition to the ration.
Veterinarian Erica Reijerkerk, specialist in internal health, shares her key tips:
✔️ Always provide enough fibre through both forage and concentrates. Unlimited is not always better — several meals per day, tailored to energy needs, often work better.
✔️ The teeth are the first step in digestion — have them checked at least once a year.
✔️ Exercise influences digestion: adjust the ration to your horse’s training.
✔️ Perform a daily quick check (appetite, manure, behaviour) to get a good picture of your horse’s health.

Fibre is an essential ingredient in a horse’s ration. That’s well-known. You know that fibre plays a crucial role in equine digestion, but what about fibre as a source of carbohydrates (energy)? In this Science Sunday, we discuss fibre and carbohydrates, why horses need them and which types of f...

No two horses are the same. That is why there is no standard ration. Feed as you need means not simply feeding more or less, but deliberately choosing which nutrients and energy sources best suit your horse. 💚

The horse feeding pyramid 🐴
Feeding a horse correctly starts with understanding its basic needs. The feeding pyramid brings structure to the ration — from absolute necessities to targeted fine-tuning.
1️⃣Water
The foundation of everything. A horse drinks around ±30 litres per day. Without sufficient water, no horse can function properly.
2️⃣Roughage
Hay, grass, alfalfa… Roughage forms the basis of the ration and provides fibre, energy through fermentation, microbiome support and gastric protection.
3️⃣Concentrates
A complement to roughage when roughage alone is not sufficient. Provides energy, protein, and essential vitamins and minerals.
4️⃣Supplements
The final step. Used to support specific needs, but never to replace the basics.
👉 A balanced ration is built layer by layer.

Do you have a pregnant mare and want the best for her and her foal?
Then the final phase of pregnancy is especially important. From the 7th month onwards, the foal grows rapidly and takes up more space, putting extra pressure on the mare’s digestive system.
To optimally support both mare and foal, she now needs:
👉 Easily digestible fibres and proteins – to support foal development and milk production
👉 Additional vitamins and minerals – for strong bones and healthy cells
Cavalor Probreed (mix or pellets) is specially developed for this phase:
✨ Sufficient energy to support growth
✨ High-quality protein for healthy development
✨ Puffed grains for smooth, efficient digestion

Cavalor Probreed is a Mare & foal feed for total health during gestation, lactation & growth. Available in the UK through Cavalor Direct.

Foal season: a smart start matters ✨
A healthy foal starts long before birth. Make sure your broodmare is in good condition:
✔️ Check body condition regularly
During the final months, a pregnant mare’s condition can change quickly. Aim for a BCS of 5–6 and adjust in time.
✔️ Small meals, spread throughout the day
As the foal grows, there is less space in the abdomen. Several small meals support digestion and improve the mare’s comfort.
✔️ Roughage remains the foundation
Always provide sufficient, high-quality roughage. It supports gut health and helps keep energy levels stable.
✔️ Rest and routine
Limit stress in the final months of pregnancy. A consistent daily routine and enough rest contribute to a smooth foaling.
✔️ Thinking ahead pays off
Good preparation during foal season lays the foundation for a strong foal and a mare that recovers well after birth.
A healthy foal starts with smart management

Internal health isn’t always visible… but it determines everything: immunity, recovery, energy, even behaviour. Fibre plays a bigger role in this than many people realise.
Here are 5 essential tips 👇
1️⃣ Provide enough fibre, distributed wisely
Not unlimited, but adjusted to your horse’s energy needs and spread throughout the day.
2️⃣ Check the teeth
Proper digestion starts with proper chewing. An annual dental check is not a luxury.
3️⃣ After antibiotics? Add extra fibre.
Fibre from roughage supports the recovery of the gut microbiome.
4️⃣ Less movement = adapted nutrition
On box rest? Choose a fibre-rich, low-energy ration and monitor closely for signs of impaction.
5️⃣ Monitor the basics daily
Manure, water intake (±30L/day), appetite, coat condition, BCS.
