Richequine Licks

A horse lick (lick block) is a supplementary feed block designed for horses to nibble or lick at their own pace, providing additional nutrition beyond basic forage or feed. These are commonly used to top up minerals, vitamins and trace elements that might be missing or low in pasture or hay diets. Equine licks typically contain:

• Salt (sodium chloride) — important for fluid balance and appetite

• Essential minerals and trace elements (e.g., calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, copper)

• Vitamins to support general health

• Sometimes molasses or flavoring to make them more palatable

• Occasionally added functional ingredients (like yeast, probiotics, or digestive supports)
