Managing Horses with Metabolic Issues
What metabolic horses will all have in common is that they need stricter management than your average horse, often with careful consideration of their sugar and starch intake.
An easy to use weigh tape to measure your horse's weight. The weigh tape measures up to 850kg.
- Monitor condition
- Ensure correct feed rations
- Administer correct medication and worming dosages
- Identify sudden changes in weight
Suitable For:
- All horses and ponies
Full instructions for use come with the weigh tape. If you are using a weigh tape to monitor changes in condition over time, make sure to always use the same tape, the same surface and measure at the same time of day for consistency.
For reference, record your horse's weigh tape reading when their Body Condition Score (BCS) is ideal.
You can view our Body Condition Scoring guide here.
