Pulpits Farm have been loyal customers of Simple System for over 20 years.
We have been thoroughly pleased with the products & service offered to us over the years and have found Simple System Horse Feeds to be perfect for the wide range of different breeds we have here; including Arabs, Thoroughbreds, Highlands and other Native breeds (many of whom live out 24/7).
Gill Robinson, EssexWe are very keen to promote natural feeding of our native Highlands as they are not built to cope with rich higher sugar diets that you see in many other feeds. We also needed a straightforward and economical diet that could be used for our mares, stallions, foals and youngstock that would promote muscle development and bone growth without adding excess fat or fizz. With Simple System we have found exactly that.
Carolyn Ashcroft, Cheshire''It's hard to balance feeding a fussy, elderly horse with Cushing's disease that needs weight keeping on her, and a youngster that needs feed to develop, but is a good doer.''
Dr Christine Wilson''The Feed Line has always given excellent advice on what was best for my Welsh Section D, John, as his age and workload changed over the years. The team are consistently friendly, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful.''
