Have been suggested to try the TopSpec Cool Condition cubes for one of my lads who is barefoot. He's had a bad few weeks with the grass coming through and will be tested for IR once things settle down. He's TB though and has lost weight, he also wont eat soaked feeds so getting calories into him is a nightmare.
My trimmer has suggested them as they are less than 10% sugar and starch combined, but high calorie. They sound ideal, but I've always been sceptical of TopSpec stuff having seen it send horses loopy, footy or both.
Also I cannot for the life of me find out the actual sugar and starch figures, just this vague 'below 10% combined', which irks me as I think the feed companies need to be more transparent, even their own nutritionist has been vague about the figures when asked directly and that makes me less inclined to buy the feed....
Does anyone feed these?
