Breeding & growing horses

Complete growth and resistance support for foals – a strong start for bones, metabolism, and immune system

Duval VitaGrow+ has been developed for foals and young horses who need a solid foundation in their first years of life for healthy growth, strong bone development, and a resilient immune system. In this phase, the groundwork is laid for a powerful locomotor system, a stable metabolism, and optimal nutrient absorption.

VitaGrow+ combines a natural seaweed mix with easily absorbable minerals such as calcium from oysters, magnesium, phosphorus, and essential trace elements. This balanced ratio closely matches what young horses need for balanced development, without the risk of overload or deficiencies.

Many young animals experience fluctuations in resistance, growth dips, or lower nutrient utilization after weaning or during winter months. VitaGrow+ provides support precisely during these vulnerable periods. It helps foals that depend on variable pasture quality, receive limited roughage, or have higher needs due to rapid growth. Also, for young horses that spend a lot of time in stables or wet pastures, it contributes to vitality, coat quality, and healthy digestion.

VitaGrow+ is completely natural, contains no sugar, fillers, or flavourings, and fits effortlessly into the daily ration. It offers exactly what young horses need for a strong, healthy start — without artificially forcing growth.

The complete collagen supplement for strong tendons, ligaments, and sustained musculoskeletal recovery

Duval Collagen was developed for horses and ponies that need extra support for tendons, ligaments, joints, and the extensive connective tissue system. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the horse's body and forms the basis of almost all structures that need to bear, stretch, and recover within the musculoskeletal system.

Tendons and ligaments even consist of approximately 90% collagen. As a horse ages, its natural production decreases, while young horses are in a phase where strength and resilience still need to increase. Supplementing collagen is therefore valuable in both build-up and maintenance phases.

Duval Collagen contains a unique combination of marine collagen peptides (sustainably sourced wild fish) and bovine collagen. This blend provides a broad peptide profile that closely matches the types of collagen naturally found in tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and skin. The smaller molecular size of fish collagen makes it highly absorbable, while bovine collagen adds extra type III collagen to support connective tissue quality and recovery.

This product is completely pure — without fragrances, colorings, or flavorings — and suitable for sport horses, broodmares, growing animals, and horses that preventatively need extra support to ensure resilience, elasticity, and recovery capacity.

Targeted support for pregnant & lactating mares

A pregnant mare is in top athletic condition.

However, while good quality roughage used to provide a sufficient base, in recent years we have seen a clear change in the composition of hay and silage:

• Lower crude protein content
• Varying mineral balance
• Less natural vitamin absorption
• Larger differences per cut and plot
• Higher sugar content

During the last 3 months of gestation and during lactation, the need for essential nutrients increases enormously.

And precisely in this phase, a small imbalance can have major consequences for:

• The mare's condition
• Maintenance of muscle mass
• The development of the foal
• The quality of the milk

Mom Support was developed to address this changing nutritional reality and support the mare with high-quality ingredients that are absorbed maximally.

Why Mom Support?

✔ Supports the immune system
✔ Helps maintain condition during lactation
✔ Supports the musculoskeletal system
✔ Contributes to optimal foal development
✔ 100% natural
✔ No added sugars
✔ No unhealthy fillers
✔ Palatable pellet

Why not just feed more hard feed?

More hard feed means:

• More starch and sugars
• More strain on the gastrointestinal tract
• Not automatically a better amino acid or mineral balance

Mom Support provides targeted supplementation where modern roughage often falls short.

Not feeding more — but supporting smarter.

The foundation of a strong sport horse begins before birth

The development of bones, tendons, muscles, and the immune system begins already in the womb.

What your mare consumes now partly determines the foundation for the future.

Complete support for pregnancy and lactation

Mom Support specifically supplements this increased need with high-quality proteins, essential amino acids, calcium from oysters and algae, natural vitamin E and C, and a rich mix of seaweeds. This supports the mare's resistance, muscle function, and overall vitality, while simultaneously providing the necessary building blocks for the foal's development.

After birth, the need for energy and proteins doubles due to milk production. In this intensive phase, Mom Support also offers targeted support, without the heaviness or burden of many commercial mare hard feeds. The product is ideal for mares sensitive to obesity, metabolism, or those that react strongly to hard feed.

The 100% natural composition contains no sugar, by-products, or artificial additives. It is a pure, easily absorbable supplement that seamlessly complements a responsible basic ration — for a healthy mare and a strong, vital foal.
