KA-HI Horse Supplement
What Is KA-HI Horse Supplement?
KA-HI is a "cold-processed" (no steam used) pelleted Vitamin, Protein, and Mineral supplement. KA-HI Horse Supplement is intended to be fed at the rate of .25 - 1 pound per head, per day, depending on your basic ration and the activity and needs of the individual horse.
Why Should I Have to Feed a Supplement?
The question of adding supplements to a horse's basic feed ration has been and will continue to be a controversial subject. We like to think of it as similar to insurance - it's sure nice to have it when you need it! KA-HI provides nutritional insurance against protein, vitamin, and mineral deficiencies.
The value of all horses, especially racing and show stock, has spiraled to unprecedented heights during the past several years. Likewise, the costs of training, racing, and raising horses have climbed accordingly. When you consider all this, the few pennies a day it costs to add Kauffman's KA-HI to your horse's daily diet, it is a minute amount in relation to your investment and other daily costs.
If the use of a supplement
- attracts one additional bid in the sales ring
- helps you move up one position on the board in just one race
- gives you a blue instead of a red in the show ring
- provides one additional foal from your broodmare band
- or helps during times of stress
