| Nutrena Mare and Foal "It has been my good fortune to witness the birth of many foals. After a while, you realize that all newborns are not created equal. Sometimes the eyes are a little brighter, the legs a little less wobbly. Those horses tend to be the ones that are the first to explore the field and the ones that make you sit up and take notice every time they gallop by. That's why I'm convinced successful development begins in the womb. My Mare & Foal Horse Feed provides that kind of development. We carefully designed its nutrient content to supply the solid foundation that future champions are built on. I'll stake my name on that." Mare and Foal Horse Feed is formulated on the belief that successful development begins in the womb. It is designed for broodmares in late gestation and lactation, as well as weanlings and yearlings.
