      Description

      Purina® Mare's Match® Foal Milk Transition Pellets supply additional calories, protein, and essential nutrients to supplement mare’s milk. Feed Purina® Mare’s Match® Transition Pellets to provide supplemental nutrition as the foal shifts from a milk-based diet to a ration consisting of forage and an appropriate Purina® product designed for growing horses. Soaking in water or milk replacer may encourage intake and ease the transition to a more solid ration.
