Where the mineralised licks are doing two jobs at once, this block does one, and it does it for horses whose minerals already come from a balancer or a fortified feed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRockies' reasoning for offering it year-round is straightforward: sodium keeps body fluid in balance and prevents electrolyte deficiency, and a horse loses sodium in sweat whether it is working in July or being ridden in a school in January. A plain block also removes any question of doubling up on copper or selenium with the rest of the diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlain salt with nothing added, so it does not overlap with a balancer or a fortified feed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from Cheshire salt, which Rockies describe as among the purest and most flavoursome available.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplies sodium, which Rockies link to body fluid balance and preventing electrolyte deficiency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRockies recommend it all year round, and particularly in hot weather or after exertion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall block, suited to a single horse rather than a herd.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorses and ponies of all types, stabled or at grass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorses already on a mineral balancer, where an extra mineralised lick would double up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweating horses in hot weather and after hard work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafe around sheep, unlike the copper-supplemented Rockies Baby Red lick.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot a substitute for a full electrolyte after heavy sweating — a measured electrolyte supplement replaces potassium and chloride as well as sodium.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffer in a lick holder, a manger or a shallow tray, free access.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep it under cover where possible — a plain salt block dissolves quickly in the rain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFresh water must be available at all times alongside it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplace the block when it is licked down to a thin plate that could be swallowed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompressed Cheshire salt lick for horses, with no added minerals or flavouring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRockies publish no purity percentage for this block.
