I was lucky enough to trial the Calm Balance + for my filly Ola, she loved it and we were amazed at how easy it was to feed.
Having bred Ola, we were shocked at how sharp and spooky she was. After about two weeks of feeding Calm Balance + we started to notice little differences in Ola, the first being less spooky, she also seemed to be more responsive to us touching her and grooming her.
Ms Karan Tett''Whenever people tell me they are unsure about what to feed I always recommend they contact Simple System. Natural, great quality feed. We've even switched our cob over too!''
