🚩We love Farnam Apple A Day products! We have the paste in tubes along with tubs of it to put aoth grain.

🚩Daily checks are increased with the heat.

🚩Please if you have a horse with dehydration issues or excessive sweating call one of us we have the paste on hand incase!

**Why Electrolyte Powder in Feed:**

Electrolyte powder provides a concentrated, measured dose of essential minerals that horses lose through sweating. We are adding it to feed to ensure each horse gets the right amount of sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium they need. The powder form mixes well with feed.

**Heat Wave Benefits and Prevention:**

During extreme heat, horses can lose enormous amounts of electrolytes through sweat - sometimes several pounds per day of hard work or stress. Supplementing prevents dehydration, muscle cramps, weakness, and fatigue. It helps maintain their appetite and encourages proper water consumption. Most importantly, it prevents serious conditions like heat exhaustion, muscle tying-up, and metabolic imbalances that can become life-threatening.

**Salt Blocks in Dry Lots:**

We will be replacing ALL THE Salt blocks in the dry lots, which provide free-choice sodium and chloride, allowing horses to self-regulate their intake based on their individual needs. They encourage water consumption, which is vital for temperature regulation through sweating and preventing impaction colic.
The blocks also give horses something to occupy themselves with, reducing boredom in confined spaces.

Together, the powder ensures baseline needs are met while blocks allow for additional intake as needed - a perfect combination for hot Kansas summers.
