Chelated Organic Trace Minerals
These proteinated minerals allow for maximum absorption and retention by the horse. They are designed to match as closely as possible the naturally complexed trace element compounds found in forages and grains.
LMF Development
LMF Development is a textured, highly fortified grain concentrate designed specifically for the western U.S. This feed is formulated for weanlings and yearlings, as well as pregnant and lactating mares.

100% Organic Selenium
Organic Selenium is more bio-available than inorganic Selenium and is better retained in the body. This allows the horse to build nutrient reserves against periods of increased demand with less risk of toxicity.
Added Amino Acids
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Think of the proteins as words and the amino acids as the letters that form the words. If an animal is trying to form a protein to build or repair tissue and an amino acid is missing, the protein cannot be formed. LMF feeds use high quality protein sources in all of our feeds. Additionally, LMF feeds are supplemented with two of the most critical amino acids, Lysine and Methionine.
Natural Vitamin E
Natural Vitamin E, which comes from plant oils, is an important fat soluble vitamin that is not produced by the horse’s body. This vitamin must be obtained through external sources like forage, grain and supplements. Vitamin E: acts as an antioxidant, helps keep the immune system strong, and helps the body use Vitamin K.
Omega 3 and Omega 6 Fatty Acids
Omega fatty acids are unsaturated fatty acids that are components of oils commonly added to horse diets. Omega 6 fatty acids are used in the body to help mediate inflammation. Omega 3 fatty acid is used to produce intermediaries that suppress inflammation. Both Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids are important in a horse’s diet for hoof health, reproductive success, allergy and immune conditions, respiratory conditions, and exercise recovery.
“G” Formulas complement grass forages.
Feed “G” formulas when diet is composed of 50% or more grass forages.
“A” Formulas complement alfalfa or clover forages.
Feed “A” formulas when the diet is composed of more than 50% alfalfa or clover forage.
Weanlings and Yearlings ( up to 18 months):
Feed LMF Development at 1 lb. per 100 lbs. of body weight until weight equals approximately 60% of expected mature weight.For example, the maximum intake for young growing horse with an expected mature weight of 1000 lbs would be 6 lbs per day.
Pregnant and Lactation Mares:
Feed LMF DEVELOPMENT at 3-8 lbs per day (based on 1000 lb. body weight) depending on body condition.
Performance Horses (18 months and older):
Feed LMF DEVELOPMENT at 3-8 lbs per day (based on 1000 lb. body weight) depending on body condition.
WARNING: Feed LMF Horse Feeds to horses according to the feeding instructions provided on the feed tag, or upon the advice of your nutritionist. Do not add other sources of selenium that cause total dietary selenium (forage and grain, combined) to exceed 0.3 ppm. Feeding additional vitamin or mineral supplements is not recommended when feeding LMF Feed products according to feeding instructions.
