In this article, we review the Bizzy Bites toy and lick. The Brand were kind enough to supply us with a Bizzy Bites ball and lick.
The Bizzy Bites ball is quite large, with the lick fitting inside the toy (ball). The outer structure is solid and features small round solid lumps on two sides, and long grooves on the other, making the toy ideal for our younger horse as it acts as a teether for younger horses.
The ball comes in two colours, pink and blue, and a short rope is included. A Bizzy wall bracket is available to purchase separately to secure on a wall.
An immediate favourite, both of our horses made light work of the Bizzy Bites lick. Once the lick had run out (it took about three days with two horses left 24 hours in the field), the horses continually returned to the toy.
Although we left the toy to roll around in the field, it can also be used in the stable and should be hung on stable walls. This can be done by a piece of bailing twine attached to a haynet ring.
The lick comes out of the storage container with little to no effort. The toy structure requires minimal assembly, with clear instructions on how to ‘put together’ on the side of the box. Once inserted, the tasty lick is held securely in place.
Over time, the bolts and plastic bits became stiff to open making it harder to replace a lick so be sure to keep it clean (as much as you can) to prevent this from happening.
Ingredients and consumption
The Bizzy Bites 1kg treat that fits inside the ball is available in mint, garlic, apple or original.
The treat contains only natural sugars and when fully consumed, is equivalent to a sugar intake matching four hours of grazing.
