HELP!! How do I get my mare to eat her supplements?

[webble]

I only feed a small amount of fast fibre and cool fibre to get them into her. She has mag ox which she has always eaten no problem, brewers yeast which she has never been keen on and agnus castus.

Since the grass has started to come through she is turning her nose up at her feed but I really need her to take her supplements. Any suggestions of sugar free things to get her eating? sugar biscuits for reading

One of mine and another horse at the yard turn their noses up at their supplements and myself and the other owner find feeding the supplements in coolstance they'll gobble them up.

Not sure how much sugar there is as I can't see any mention of it.

you could try a handful of spearmint that worked for me, x

For my fussy horse I make marmite tea!
Dilute the marmite ( I used the kettle then let it cool) and tip over the feed, hands down the most effective thing I have tried

Mine will eat up with a bit of cinnamon added, he loves the stuff!

I've heard good things about spearmint. You can buy it here http://www.robinsonsequestrian.com/stable-yard/feedroom/supplements/crushed-spearmint.html

Just bought some spearmint on the way to the yard and fingers crossed it has done the trick
