Horslyx Holder – 15 kg

What it is

The Horslyx Holder – 15 kg is a robust, re-usable feeding solution engineered to fit the standard 15 kg Horslyx Balancer tub. Its weather-resistant design makes it suitable for year-round use in both stable and pasture environments, giving you a tidy, secure way to present the lick while protecting it from mud, bedding and hoof damage.

Key benefits

• Weatherproof & durable: built to withstand normal UK yard and field conditions so you can leave it in place with confidence.

• Reduces waste: raises and contains the lick to minimise contamination and trampling, helping each 15 kg tub last longer.

• Flexible placement: designed for floor feeding in the stable or field; ideal when you don’t want to mount hardware or when horses share a paddock.

• Promotes hygiene: smoother internal surfaces are easy to wipe down so the lick stays clean and palatable.

• Cost-effective: a reusable holder that moves with the herd and can be used season after season.

How to use

Place the 15 kg Horslyx Balancer tub directly into the holder and set it on a flat, level surface where horses cannot kick or tip it easily. For shared groups, position it away from tight corners and gateways to reduce guarding behaviour and queuing. Rotate the location periodically to spread hoof traffic and reduce poaching.

Setup & placement tips

• Stable use: position away from haynets to limit debris falling into the lick and to encourage horses to alternate licking and resting calmly.

• Field use: choose well-drained ground; avoid rutted or sloped areas that could cause tipping.

• Group management: for larger herds, provide more than one holder to reduce competition and to keep intake even across animals.

Cleaning & care

Lift out the empty balancer tub, remove loose debris and wipe the holder with warm water. Allow to dry before inserting a new lick. Periodic cleaning keeps surfaces hygienic and maintains palatability.

Safety notes

Always provide free access to fresh water and forage. Monitor intake, especially with good-doers, and manage access time as part of your overall nutrition plan. Inspect the holder periodically for damage and replace if any sharp edges or cracks appear.
