Such an amazing testimonial from Danielle, who has clearly done her research and is an avid lover of our Conditioning pellets. Have a read of what she has to say -

I’ve noticed such a huge difference since switching to Hekeao Conditioning Pellets. After trialling so many other conditioning feeds, Hekeao has definitely stood out as the best option for my horses.
Owning OTTBs, it can be difficult to find a conditioning feed that doesn’t make them hot headed and stomach upset! It’s reassuring knowing the feed actively supports, soothes and protects their gut and digestion. Which has improved their temperaments and behaviour.
I also love that the pellets can be soaked. It helps keep their hydration levels up, removes the need for extra products like beet, and makes the perfect carrier for my supplements. With no fillers and high quality ingredients, you know you’re getting exactly what you pay for. For my four horses, I go through two bags a fortnight, and the results speak for themselves. Because the ingredients are such high quality, I’ve actually found that I can feed less than I would with other conditioning feeds and still get far better results.

We all know how important it is to have a healthy horse inside and out, in the recent years I’ve done a lot of research into nutrition. I understand that a lot of this isn’t common knowledge yet!

Many conditioning feeds rely heavily on cereal grains, which I’ve personally had issues with in the past. The high starch levels are something horses aren’t designed to digest well, and with other brands this has caused hot or fizzy behaviour, gut disruption, and overall sensitivity in my horses. That’s why the standout ingredients in these conditioning pellets make a difference.
Which is why I’ll always choose Hekeao!
