A big thank you to Dr Judi for all your work, and to the team at @Kentaur Australia for hosting beautifully at their amazing new ‘Belvoir’ site. Many of us had never had the opportunity to visit the homestead, and the food and atmosphere was brilliant.

When does my broodmare need a different feed?
If she`s in late gestation, you should be looking at a targeted breeding feed now. Why? Most of the foal`s growth occurs from 7 months onwards, they will go from the size of a rabbit to a fully formed foal.
The nutrient requirements of the foal, and consequently the mare, increase dramatically during this time, and your mare also needs to set up her body for lactation, where her requirements will increase again.
Broodmares need high levels of protein, amino acids, vitamins and minerals to support the foal, without overfeeding on calories.
💡Feed a full, balanced breeding specific feed like our Horse Grower Weaner Pellets helps to take the guesswork out of your mare`s ration.
💡Got a mare that needs a low sugar and starch feed? Calm Care Plus is safe for gestational laminitis and supports her nutrient requirements in late gestation and lactation.

Ears and eyes forward for Milan and Hashie...
Our Junior Ambassador Milan has been working very hard recently, and has had some fantastic results, including a Champion Rider 6-9 years, and a Champion First Ridden Hunter Show Pony
Hashie needs a special care diet to keep him healthy with enough energy for work and to keep him in show condition. Our team put together a carefully calculated diet including:
- Calm Care Plus
- Lupin Fibre Boost
- Linseed Oil
Paired low sugar and starch hay, and Hashie is looking amazing!
Thank you @vicki.tapper for the gorgeous shot.

Community Spotlight - `Darcy` and Kristy bringing pony cuddles to those in need...
Kristy from @healing_minds_pet_therapy recently shared a photo with us of Darcy, her therapy pony, hard at work. It caught our attention, and because we always love seeing good news, we wanted to share Kristy`s story with all of you too.
Sharing the passion for horses...
Kristy is a long time horse owner and rider who has utilised the skills from her military and medical background, and first hand experiences to start Healing Minds in 2015. She researched the benefits Animal Assisted Therapy can offer children and adults with almost any disability, mental illness, chronic illness and for those with autism spectrum disorder, Healing Minds started a voluntary provision of services in 2018.
Now offering a guided interaction between patients emergency service personnel or anyone that needs a pony cuddle with her therapy friend, Miniature Pony Darcy Miniature Pony Jacob ( in training)
Why pet therapy?
The purpose of pet therapy is to help someone recover from or cope with a health problem or mental disorder.
Having suffered a life changing injury herself in 2021 after a fall with her horse Rocky while in her capacity as Clerk of the Course at a Trotting event in Kellerberrin, WA, and later diagnosed with PTSD and depression as a result of the injury and its devastating effects on her life, Kristy can relate to those going through similar ordeals and enjoys the sense of purpose and fulfillment that she gains from having such a positive impact on those that meet Darcy at hospitals, aged care facilities and schools around Perth and regional Western Australia.

"We love that the T&R Grower Weaner Pellets have been made with the nutritional requirements of growing and breeding horses in mind.
All of our broodmares, stallions and young stock are on this feed. The reliable, high-protein formula has added vitamins and minerals to support the correct muscle and bone formation, as well as good milk production in mares. We also like that it is made fresh using local raw materials, thereby supporting WA farmers.”
"At Valley Equine Vet Centre we choose T&R feeds for their reliably excellent quality and freshness that comes with a locally made product. The convenience of already added salt, vitamins and minerals in the Horse weaner and grower pellet saves us time in our busy hospital.
Our recip mares are thriving and all looking fantastic!
Thank you Thompson and Redwood.

“I have used T&R equine products for my horses and foals for many years. Over this time, I have used the T&R Horse Pellets and Horse Grower Weaner depending on their needs. My Arab endurance horse (who also does the Anzac march here in town every year) holds a great top line and dapples on the horse pellets. All my horses have always held their conditioning beautifully and a nice shine to their coats on these products.”
