SILVER COOPER BLOCK
Copper supports the immune system and fur pigmentation in horses and ruminants. It plays a role in bone and cartilage formation, which is especially important for growing and older horses. A deficiency in copper can lead to reduced energy levels and bone deformities. Copper is an essential trace element that plays a significant role in various enzyme systems, brain function, kidney health, hair and wool quality, and hemoglobin.The daily copper requirement for horses is approximately 100-200 mg/kg of dry matter feed. However, this requirement can vary based on the horse’s activity levels, age, and diet. The Silver Copper Block provides the necessary amount of copper along with other trace elements and allows for optional consumption.For ruminants, the daily copper requirement is around 10-15 mg/kg of dry matter feed. This can also vary depending on their activity levels, age, and feeding methods. Goats, in particular, have a slightly higher copper requirement compared to other ruminants. The Silver Copper Block provides the necessary amount of copper along with other trace elements and allows for optional consumption.
In nature, all animals are programmed to seek and find their needs naturally. In some cases, they may even show interest in materials that are not included in their feed. This interest is often due to the presence of essential minerals in the objects they are attracted to. Silver blocks are highly functional and designed specifically for this purpose, making them suitable for all animal breeds and types.
