Frequently Asked Questions
How does TrueColour work?
TrueColour contains a natural pigmenting agent which intensifies the coat colour. Other ingredients act as a skin and hair conditioner giving a shiny coat, stimulating kerotin production to give a softer coat.
What colours will it work on?
Generally, it will work on most colours, from black, dark brown, chestnut, bay, dun, palomino, grey.
How much do you feed to your horse?
Each tub contains a 45gm scoop and generally, one scoop per day is added to your horse's feed. If your horse's coat is dry, bleached or in poor condition, it is recommended that you start on two scoops per day for the first two weeks, then one scoop per day after that.
How long would a 2kg tub last?
If you are feeding at a rate of one scoop per day, then it should last you six weeks (44 days) for one horse.
Will horses like the taste?
TrueColour is very palatable and generally most horses like it. When the product was being trialled, even fussy horses were eating it with no problems.
What are the ingredients in TrueColour?
The active ingredients include Soya Bean Meal, Ascophyllum Nodosum Meal, L-Lysine, Paprika, Molasses Meal, Amino Acid Complexed Zinc, Riboflavin, Biotin, Folic Acid.
How long do you feed it before you see a result?
Most people feeding TrueColour to their horse see a change in 2-3 weeks. Sometimes the result can take longer, depending on the condition of the horse's coat when it started.
Will it totally change the colour of the horse's coat?
No, it will not make a brown horse black. TrueColour acts on the natural colour of the horse's coat.
Will one tub be enough or do I need to keep feeding it?
One tub will be enough to make a difference, but you do need to keep feeding it to keep that change.
