Himalayan Rock Salt Licks are obviously distinctive by their colour, however it's not just this that sets them apart from other licks and they are believed to be one of the purest forms of salt (sodium chloride) available. This is good news as Horses and ponies require supplementary salt on a daily basis, and research shows that salt is the one nutrient that horses will self-supplement to balance their diet. We find our Himalayan Salt best as it comes without unnatural flavors that help encourage greediness!

Himalayan Salts' respective toughness is actually an important quality as it's very weather resistant, meaning you're safe to hang them up in the field for your horses and ponies. Hanging is desirable as it allows easy rotation of the salt, which in turn greatly minimizes the risk of uneven wear and ultimately helps to prevent premature breaking of the lick. Its hardness also really helps to stop horses and ponies from biting chunks off, a problem that otherwise occurs all too frequently, so it's a bit of a win-win situation! \u003cstrong\u003eFeeding instructions: \u003c\/strong\u003eHang at a safe height within easy reach of your horse.","brand":"Wholefood Earth","offers":[{"title":"1kg","offer_id":13722543194181,"sku":"5060470141820","price":2.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"2kg","offer_id":13722543325253,"sku":"5060470141868","price":3.52,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0027\/6008\/1477\/products\/wholefood-earth-himalayan-pink-salt-lick-108882.jpg?v=1593194560"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0027\/6008\/1477\/collections\/salt-licks-676328.jpg?v=1701265567","url":"https:\/\/checkout.wholefoodearth.com\/cs\/collections\/salt-licks.oembed","provider":"Whole Food Earth®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
