  • Nutritional Quality Policy

    We take every care to source ingredients that are traceable from their origination through to the item you feed your horse.

    We only work with suppliers and manufacturers that have quality systems in place and share our interest in providing the best we can source. Where possible, we use human-grade ingredients as we wouldn’t expect any lesser quality for our horses.

    We sample and test ingredients for undesirable substances on a regular basis with accredited independent laboratories and use ingredients that are safe for competition use.

    As we work with natural products/ingredients, it can be a challenge to ensure consistency in appearance, and if any of our products are unsatisfactory we are always happy to discuss any situation that may arise – we continually aim to improve our products with the objective of making a difference to the quality of horse’s life.

Inspiration behind the product

The Story

Horses are trickle feeders and their stomachs continually produce acid. Feeding fibre can help buffer this acid as chewing produces acid-buffering saliva. This chewing effect can be prolonged by making forage last longer - and the Munch Net is the perfect solution to extend the eating times of our Munch range of healthy snacks.

FAQ's

Yes!

  • Munch can be used as part of the dietary management of horses and ponies at risk of, or prone to, laminitis.
  • Munch is low energy so can be used in low energy or restricted diets.
  • Munch is low sugar - low soluble carbohydrate diets are recommended for laminitis risk animals.
  • Munch is fortified – additional vitamins and minerals will top up reduced supply from a restricted diet.

Yes you can feed it just before riding. The rate of intake of Munch is relatively slow and so the volumes entering the digestive tract will be relatively low too.

a. The first issue with feeding a large meal before exercise is that it diverts blood flow from the extremities (i.e. muscles) to digestive tract. The little and often mode of eating of Munch means that this is not an issue.

b. A second issue is that large meals bind a lot of water which adds to the weight a horse is carrying, again the relatively low intake means that this is not an issue either.

Soaking your Munch Block

While we recommend soaking your munch blocks for dentally challenged or older horses, you may also want to soak them to encourage water intake when the weather is extremely warm, but also when it is extremely cold as a 'winter warmer'. Some horses can also just prefer to eat the blocks like this, so it is completely down to personal preference.

Feeding at Variable Heights in the Stable

While horses are grazers, if you watch them in the field, they don't just have their heads down and eat grass. If they have a hedgerow you will quite often find them borrowing away to find little 'treats', or they might even eat some other vegetation at varying heights. Horses in the wild graze for 80% of their time, and browse for 20%.
