====Supplements to Provide a Balanced Diet====

Donkeys receiving a diet of carefully selected straw, grass and / or hay may not require supplementation other than access to an equine specific mineral block.  However, in many cases donkeys in the UK are fed a diet with restricted levels of protein, vitamins and minerals.  Dried forages are particularly deficient in vitamins.  Feeding large quantities of equine feeds in order to meet micronutrient requirements will encourage weight gain and related health issues.  Experience at The Donkey Sanctuary has shown that the best way of delivering an optimal level of nutrition without promoting weight gain is to feed small amounts of a multi-supplement in a concentrated, palatable pellet such as TopSpec Donkey Forage Balancer which is designed to be fed with forage, avoiding the need to add excess calories to your donkey’s diet.  TopSpec Donkey Forage Balancer is suitable for all donkeys over the age of 3 weeks and means that you can be sure that your donkey is receiving all the micronutrients required to stay healthy.
