A 1kg healthy, low sugar fibre block with endless uses. Packed full of essential vitamins and minerals together with herbs naturally sought by horses in the hedgerows, rosehips, and hawthorn, Vitamunch blocks can help in many ways:

As a boredom breaker
Encouraging natural foraging in the stable when turnout is limited
Topping up essential vitamins & minerals
Providing a healthy, low sugar but high fibre snack
To slow food intake with its highly compressed nature
As a smaller (and tastier!) alternative to hay when travelling
Keeping horses occupied at competition

What inspired this vitamunch fibre block?

As a company focused on the horses’ wellbeing, we thought it was only right to look at the mental and nutritional wellbeing of our equine friends too!

What is in vitamunch?

Not just a simple fibre block, vitamunch fibre blocks are made from dried timothy hay and fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, while containing tasty herbs naturally sought by horses in the hedgerows:

Rosehips - a traditional tonic, high in vitamin C.

Hawthorn - known for its effect on the cardiovascular system, rich in bioflavonoids.

12 Vitamins - including A, B, C, D, E, as well as biotin, copper, and zinc!

Timothy Hay – naturally high in fibre and low in sugar, and super tasty!

*1 vitamunch provides 50% of the published daily requirements for vitamins & trace elements based on a 500kg horse in light work.

Who is it for?

All horses can enjoy a vitamunch hedgerow fibre block due to its high fibre and low sugar content, including those prone to laminitis. It is particularly useful:

As a boredom breaker
Encouraging natural foraging in the stable when turnout is limited
Topping up essential vitamins & minerals
To slow food intake with its highly compressed nature
As a smaller (and tastier!) alternative to hay when travelling
Keeping horses occupied at competition
Horses on box rest
As a distraction when companions go out

Ways to feed vitamunch hay blocks.

There is no right or wrong way, it’s whatever works for your horse.

As its so tasty, most horses are keen to try gobble it down. Feeding vitamunch in a specialised munch net can help slow down those eager feeders. You can also place it in the middle of their normal haynet, so they spend time trying to hunt down the tasty treat!

For oldies whose teeth don’t quite do as well as they used to, or all horses in the winter, soaking the munch block will see it evolve into a warm, tasty bowl full of delicious goodness, right in front of your eyes!

It can of course be fed in the field or stable on its own on the ground or in a bowl. The highly compressed nature of the block will naturally slow eating down and act as a boredom breaker too!
