JFC Ringfort Foal Creep Feeder fcf01

The Ringfort Foal Feeder by JFC fcf01. The early stage of a foal’s life is critical for the development of a healthy and high performing adult horse.

Foals are particularly susceptible to nutritional deficiencies due to their faster growth rate, higher nutritional requirements and the stress associated with separation from the mare at weaning.

The introduction of additional nutrients (a balancer) in the form of a creep feed prior to weaning is an excellent way to ensure the foal is sufficiently nourished. This can be challenging and time consuming particularly if the foal is stocked with the mare or other grazing animals and is intensified for stud farms, rearing several foals at once.

Description

The JFC Ringfort Foal Creep Feeder is a safe and effective means of providing creep feed to foals in the presence of the mare or other grazing animals. Feed is loaded from the top into a waterproof reservoir and then distributed to the four feeding points.

Each feeding point has an adjustable plate to ensure smaller foals can be fed in the same field as the mare and a weatherproof flap to ensure birds and rain are kept out. This labour saving device reduces the level of management and supervision required during feeding. 

Key Features 

  • Developed to provide a safe method to creep feed foals in the field, in the presence of their mothers, with adjustable openings to suit foal size/age.  

  • Feed nuts or pellets to foals to make them grow evenly, faster and healthier.  

  • Feed smaller foals more than larger foals that are in the same field while suckling, by adjusting the plate at the feeder port.  

  • Waterproof feed reservoir ensures clean dry nuts or pellets at all times.  

  • Easily moved to another part of the field to prevent poaching. 

  • Four foals can be fed at once, or several foals ad-lib 24 hours a day.  

  • The feeder is rotationally moulded with low density polyethylene making it extremely strong and durable. 

  • Fitted with a ballast system which can be filled with sand or water for additional stability. 

  • Designed with 4 feeding ports allowing 4 foals to feed simultaneously.  

  • Suitable for use with nut or pellet type feeds. 


*Note: Some level of supervision is required particularly at the early stages of use to identify overly aggressive or timid foals and possible overfeeding.
