marstall Freizeit is an economical muesli for universal use, based on hydrothermally macerated, easily digestible cereal flakes. Its lower energy and protein content and high proportion of crude fibre makes it ideal for feeding horses in light work to suit their needs. It contains all the important vitamins, minerals and trace elements and is ideal for the needs of leisure horses.
marstall Freizeit is the universal and yet economical muesli at the quality you expect from marstall.
Good doers and horses in light work can tend to gain weight rapidly. That’s why a muesli with a high proportion of crude fibre and a low energy and protein content is ideal for them. marstall Freizeit, like many marstall mueslis, is based on hydrothermally macerated cereal flakes. These are digested more easily and completely than crushed cereals or whole barley or maize kernels. This minimises energy losses and protects the gut, which also benefits from the high proportion of crude fibre. What‘s more, marstall Freizeit also contains all the important vitamins, minerals and trace elements. You can therefore top up the low levels of copper, zinc and selenium found in German hay as required.
marstall Freizeit is the ideal balanced feed for horses in light work, kept stabled, at grass or loose-housed. If you feed less than the recommended quantity of marstall Freizeit, the remaining vitamins and minerals can be made up with marstall Force. Similarly, if the energy demand rises, for instance due to frequent riding, lungeing or driving, marstall Freizeit can be supplemented with cereals or a marstall sports feed.
