A starvation diet?
The best dam milkforfoals isn ' t made by mares. It’ s made by Bordens. We make it in both powder and pellets. And ca it Foal-Lac.
From a standpoint of composition, Foal-Lac and mare’ s
milk are almost identical. While both have the same proportion of protein, fat, and lactose, Foal-Lac has even more of the essential vitamins and minerals.
If there’ s no apparent difference in quality between what mother makes and what Borden’ s makes, there is an enormous difference in quantity. For-even though the mare seems to be nursing normally, the foal may actually be on a starvation diet, as the mare’ s output generally declines while the foal ' s nutritional requirements are still on the rise. Recent tests at the Borden experimental farms proved that Foal-Lac powder reconstituted with water is not only the near-perfect substitute fororphan and rejected foals but the safeguard supplement for foals who suckle. What’ s more, the tests, included in the special Equine Edition of Borden ' s Bulletin( Vol. VII, No. 3), show that Foal-Lac pellets provide older foals with the essential nutrients that their dams are no longer able to supply.
