Biotin & Zink
- with organic zinc
- with the amino acid methionine
- cereal-free, pelleted diet feed
marstall Biotin & Zink is a cereal-free feed supplement that provides long-term improvements to the quality of the skin, coat and hoof horn. Biotin, zinc and the amino acid methionine make the horn structure elastic and resilient. It provides a sufficient supply of zinc, biotin and methionine for pregnant and lactating mares, and foals.
marstall Biotin & Zink tops up empty reserves.
Many horses suffer from poor hoof horn quality. The hooves are soft and greasy or brittle and cracked. These horses often have a matt, dull coat, infected follicles, excessive hair loss and/or skin problems. If husbandry conditions are right, the cause is often a diet-related shortage of biotin, zinc and amino acids - especially if the problems persist. A lack of biotin can also occur if gut flora is out of balance.
