HYGAIN TRU BREED® is an extruded feed designed to match the complex feeding management of stallions, pregnant and lactating mares and growing horses. HYGAIN TRU BREED® provides a balance of digestible energy, soluble fibre, quality protein and essential vitamins and minerals with controlled levels of starch (low GI) for optimum digestive health. High in essential amino acids, HYGAIN TRU BREED® promotes maximized milk quality and lactation duration, fertility and optimal growth and development of the musculoskeletal system.
A diet for healthy mares and happy foals.

HYGAIN TRU BREED® is a blend of the following quality ingredients:
Soya Bean Meal, Canola Meal, Legume Hulls, Cereals, Rice Bran Oil, Di Calcium Phosphate, Calcium Carbonate, Salt, Lysine, Di-Methionine, Magnesium Oxide, Bio-Available Silicon, Prebiotic (MOS), Natural Vitamin E, Bio-Available Selenium, HYGAIN® Vitamin and Chelated Mineral Premix.
Prebiotic – Prebiotics incorporated in HYGAIN® TRU BREED® have a defined mode of action, promoting a healthy gut and supporting natural defences essential for optimum health and performance.
Natural Vitamin E – This unique and highly stable form of Natural Vitamin E known as RRR-a-tocopherol is up to 5 times more bio available and potent than regular synthetic sources of Vitamin E. Research has shown that this form of Natural Vitamin E provides higher retention levels in plasma, further aiding antioxidant, immune, cardiovascular, circulatory, neuromuscular and reproductive functions.
Bio-Available Selenium – Selenium acts as an antioxidant to prevent fatty acid oxidation which can cause tissue damage. Research has shown that an organic form of selenium, is more readily absorbed and retained than selenium in inorganic forms.
Bio-Available Silicon – Research has shown that Bio-Available Silicon, a digestible form of monosilic acid has a role in bone physiology and metabolism by increasing osteoblastic (bone building) activity and decreasing osteoclastic (bone demineralization) activity, promoting optimal skeletal growth, integrity and durability.
HYGAIN® RBO® Equine Performance Oil® – HYGAIN® RBO® Equine Performance Oil® is a blend of rice bran oil, omega 3, 6 & 9 essential fatty acids and natural anti-oxidants known to improve the health and structural integrity of cell membranes.
Chelated Minerals – Trace mineral chelates offer a more efficient and absorbable method of providing mineral supplementation in horses.
Feeding Guide:
HYGAIN TRU BREED® provides a balance of digestible energy, soluble fibre, quality protein and essential vitamins and minerals with controlled levels of starch (low GI) for optimum digestive health.
HYGAIN®’s controlled moisture and pressure cooking process (extrusion) promotes highly efficient digestion and nutrient utilisation and improved feed safety.
Feeding amount may be influenced by age, breed, gestation and lactation status, work load, desired body condition, pasture/hay quality and availability and climate. Foals may be introduced to HYGAIN TRU BREED® by ‘creep feeding’ from 2-3 weeks of age. HYGAIN TRU BREED® should be fed in conjunction with quality pasture, hay, chaff or soluble fibre sources.

Feeding Tips:
- Introduce HYGAIN® TRU BREED® to your horse’s diet gradually over a 7-14 day period.
- Feed by weight and not by volume.
- Feed a minimum of 1% of your horse’s body weight daily as roughage.
- Horses have a small stomach, so feed little and often.
- Ensure horses have access to clean water.
- Do not add additional vitamins or minerals unless directed by a veterinarian or nutritionist.
- For dietary recommendations and nutritional solutions contact HYGAIN®.
