Re: Cavalor

Hello Mawghan,

I took a look at a few feeds and it is difficult to assess because they offer proprietary listings -- they give a name to a group of ingredients such as "Struconcept" or "AirForce" -- so I have no way of knowing the exact ingredients.

I took a look at the junior feed, since I am always concerned about feeding too much starch to growing horses (it makes them more susceptible to osteopathic disorders), but there was no mention of what grains, if any, are used.

So, I cannot give you an intelligent answer since this company is not divulging enough information.

All the best,
