Phase Feeding Program Available at Jones Feed Mill...

Phase 1 - is specifically designed to address the nutrient needs of the young growing horse up to 12 months of age. This formulation is designed to minimize nutrition related occurrence of developmental orthopedic disease (DOD) and to provide nutrients necessary for optimum growth while minimizing skeletal disorders. Particular care has been taken to include minerals and amino acids in the amounts and forms most beneficial to the young horse.

Phase 2 - features the same attention to ingredient quality as does Phase 1 but with levels of fortification appropriate for the yearling and pregnant and lactating mare. Levels of trace minerals in Phase 2 insure that development of the fetus and storage of nutrients in the fetal liver are optimized, resulting in superior skeletal development in the neonatal foal. Additionally, the strong skeletal foundation initiated in the weanling fed Phase 1 is furthered in the yearling by feeding Phase 2.
Phase 3 - is a scientifically formulated performance horse feed that specifically addresses energy substrate availability and muscle metabolism in the equine athlete. Energy sources utilized in the feed are selected to satisfy the specific metabolic requirements of the horse during both the anaerobic and aerobic phases of exercise. The mineral, protein and vitamin levels in Phase 3 insure peak performance and meet the micronutrient requirements of horses in intense training.
Phase 4 - is for mature horses, barren mares and lightly ridden pleasure horses. Phase 4 is higher in fiber than many conventional feeds, yet still retain an adequate concentration of nutrients to satisfy the requirements of older horses and of horses that are idle or lightly used. The pelleted form makes Phase 4 especially appropriate for older horses with poor teeth and horses prone to waste feed.
Phase 5 - A feed formulated for horses being used for performance and show, using a highly digestible energy source including beet pulp and soy oil.  This is a low protein feed, making it ideal for horses being fed rich alfalfa hays, which is enhanced with micronutrients.  Yea-Sacc gives improved digestibility, while Vitamin E and a selenium additive known as Sel-Plex act as antioxidants and improve muscle function.
