- How to use the 15kg Horslyx Holder…
Due to the unique manufacturing process of Horslyx Balancer, your lick will ‘cold flow’ to match the surroundings. For example, with nothing to contain the lick it would spread across the ground.
When you first put Horslyx into the holder there will be a gap around the lick. This gap will be filled as the Horslyx ‘cold flows’ into the space. This process can take some time, but the warmer the lick and its surroundings, the quicker the process will be.
Allowing this ‘cold flow’ process to take place fills the gap, and ‘fixes’ the lick in place, so even an enthusiastic horse will struggle to knock the lick out of the holder.
To remove the balancer from its container, first flex the sides away from the lick. Turn upside down and knock sharply on the bottom of the container. Once removed from the packaging, turn the lick the right way up, before placing into the Lick Holder. See the below video to watch the process.
