Concentrated Energy for Horses

Horses require energy for normal body functions, movement, exercise, growth and maintaining body condition.

Energy requirements can increase due to workload, environmental conditions and individual metabolism.

Robank Cool Calories provides a concentrated source of dietary fat, allowing additional energy to be included in the diet without substantially increasing the volume of grain.

Fat is an energy-dense nutrient, making it useful when a horse requires more calories than its existing feeding program provides.

Supports Healthy Weight Gain

Some horses struggle to maintain appropriate body condition despite receiving good-quality forage and balanced feed.

Robank Cool Calories may be useful for:

  • Horses that are difficult to keep in condition
  • Underweight horses requiring additional dietary energy
  • Performance horses with increased calorie requirements
  • Horses losing condition during training
  • Horses needing additional energy without large grain meals

Weight gain should be gradual and monitored through regular body condition assessments.

Horses with unexplained weight loss should receive veterinary and dental assessment before relying on calorie supplementation.

Additional Energy for Performance Horses

Performance horses often have higher energy requirements than horses at maintenance.

Robank Cool Calories can be incorporated into suitable feeding programs for:

  • Dressage horses
  • Showjumpers
  • Eventing horses
  • Endurance horses
  • Racehorses
  • Working horses
  • Competition ponies

The concentrated fat content provides additional dietary energy to support exercise and maintenance of body condition.

Energy Without Increasing Grain Volume

Adding more grain is not always the most suitable way to increase calorie intake.

Large grain meals can increase dietary starch intake and may not be appropriate for every horse.

Robank Cool Calories offers an alternative energy source based on vegetable fat.

It can help increase dietary energy density while limiting the need for additional cereal grain.

Important: Cool Calories is not a complete horse feed and should not replace adequate forage, protein, vitamins or minerals.

Essential Fatty Acids for Skin & Coat

Dietary fats provide energy and contribute fatty acids that support normal skin and coat function.

Robank Cool Calories supplies vegetable-derived fat to complement the horse's existing diet.

Adequate dietary fat can contribute to maintaining a healthy coat and overall condition.

Convenient Dry-Fat Formula

Unlike liquid oils, Robank Cool Calories is supplied as a dry supplement.

Its format makes it convenient to:

  • Measure using the supplied scoop
  • Mix into grain or concentrate feeds
  • Incorporate into regular feeding routines
  • Store alongside other dry horse supplements

The manufacturer's feeding instructions recommend mixing Cool Calories into the grain portion of the diet.

Recommended Daily Feeding Rates

Feeding Requirement Daily Amount Approximate Weight
Average supplementation 2–4 scoops 40–80g
Higher calorie supplementation 3–8 scoops 60–160g

One supplied scoop measures approximately 20g.

The higher feeding range is intended for underweight performance horses undergoing intense training.

Feeding requirements vary according to age, breed, exercise level and body condition.

Introducing Robank Cool Calories

The manufacturer recommends introducing Cool Calories gradually over approximately 14 days.

A gradual transition allows the horse's digestive system to adapt to the increased dietary fat.

Suggested Introduction

Begin with a small quantity mixed into regular feed.

Increase gradually towards the recommended amount over the two-week adaptation period.

If loose manure develops, reduce the feeding amount until the horse adjusts.

Do not make sudden, large increases in dietary fat.

Feeding Management Recommendations

For horses requiring additional condition, consider the complete feeding program.

This may include:

  • Providing sufficient good-quality hay or pasture
  • Checking dental health
  • Reviewing parasite management
  • Ensuring adequate dietary protein
  • Supplying balanced vitamins and minerals
  • Monitoring workload and recovery
  • Assessing body condition regularly
  • Investigating unexplained weight loss

Robank Cool Calories supplies additional energy but does not correct nutritional deficiencies elsewhere in the diet.

Suitable for Hard Keepers

Hard keepers are horses that struggle to maintain an appropriate body condition.

This may be influenced by individual metabolism, workload, feed quality, dental problems or underlying health conditions.

Cool Calories can be used to increase the energy density of an appropriately balanced ration.

It is particularly useful when the goal is to provide more calories without relying exclusively on larger grain meals.

Suitable for Senior Horses

Some older horses may benefit from additional dietary energy.

However, feeding programs for senior horses should account for dental health, digestive function and any underlying medical conditions.

Robank Cool Calories may be incorporated into an appropriate senior horse ration when additional calories are needed.

Consult a veterinarian or equine nutritionist for horses with metabolic disorders or unexplained weight loss.

Important Feeding Precautions

  • Introduce gradually over approximately two weeks.
  • Feed according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
  • Mix thoroughly into regular feed.
  • Do not use as a complete feed.
  • Maintain adequate forage intake.
  • Ensure the overall diet remains balanced for protein, vitamins and minerals.
  • Monitor bodyweight and body condition.
  • Reduce the feeding amount if loose manure occurs.
  • Seek veterinary advice for unexplained weight loss or digestive disturbances.
  • Always provide clean, fresh drinking water.

Storage Instructions

  • Store in a cool, dry location.
  • Keep the container securely closed.
  • Protect from excessive heat and direct sunlight.
  • Prevent moisture and contamination.
  • Use a clean, dry measuring scoop.
  • Follow the storage directions and best-before date on the packaging.
