As the name implies Calf Manna is for Calves, not horses. It is not
balanced for horses, and certainly not for foals. Yes we have used
it in the past. Some people have had no problems. Others have major
problems and don't know why. Calf Manna is very high in calcium and
low in phosp. Balance is way off for foals.

If you are feeding foals, pick a formula for foals - Carnation makes one,
Omalene 100, so does Purena, Equine Jr. These feeds are made for horses
not cows.

For feeding the endurance horse, if you want a complete feed or grain,
pick one for the performance horse - not one for a calf.
