Vitalbix Fiber-Mix+
Vitalbix Fiber-Mix is a fibre-rich roughage mix for horses, composed of healthy grasses with a low sugar content and timothy structural pellets. The mix is supplemented with 3% linseed oil, a natural source of omega 3 fatty acids. Thanks to its soft structure and well-digestible fibres, Fiber-Mix stimulates chewing and saliva production, which contributes to a healthy digestion. The roughage mix is suitable as a supplement to the daily ration or as a partial replacement for roughage. Due to its soft and shorter structure, Fiber-Mix is also suitable for horses with reduced dentition and young horses. The mix contains no alfalfa or added vitamins and minerals.
