Copper Booster

Chelated copper paste

A high concentration of bioavailable easily absorbable chelated copper.

• Easy to use syringe format. • Palatable formulation.

Poor copper availability can be a cause of: • Anaemia: Copper is required for the production of red blood cells. • Increased incidence of epiphysitis in young stock. • Dullness in the coat and poor hooves. This can be especially seen when horses are turned out in the spring. • Poor fertility. Copper availability is essential for enzyme activity and improved reproduction.
