StableFeed has THE ONLY seasonally changing product on the market today. When we talk about our Seasons Biome Blend with horse owners there is always an “aha” moment when the owner says, “That makes so much sense! Why didn’t anyone think of this before?”
Horse owners tend to think about their horses in terms of seasons: laminitis and hormones in the spring, ulcers and allergies in the summer, laminitis and upper respiratory problems in the fall, and getting fat or stocking up in the winter. There is some crossover and variation but if you’re a horse owner, you know what I’m talking about.
Our nutrient dense pellet stays the same throughout the year but the leafy inclusions that are added into the pellet change seasonally. Here’s what’s on tap for winter.

In Winter.... Baby it’s cold outside! Regardless of where you live, nature has a cooling cycle and plants “rest”. The physiological and psychological ability of horses to adapt to environmental changes like these is crucial for their health and welfare. The winter cycle with a shortening length of day provides a reliable environmental cue that is used by horses to anticipate environmental stressors. Their circadian clocks and dramatic changes from pasture grasses to dried hay influence every part of the horse, from adrenal function to immunity, and even the composition of their blood. Providing horses with a diverse diet of functional foods that support their systems can go a long way toward helping them maintain homeostasis despite these numerous stressors. The Seasons Biome Winter Blend is a robust combination of 14 powerhouse foods that support proper immune and adrenal function with the same high nutrition standards to make sure their needs are met.
