How Experienced Feeders Actually Use It

Used during warm-weather shows and summer show prep periods when heat causes intake depression. Particularly relevant for summer jackpots and early-season county fairs. Amaferm has strong supporting research for gut efficiency under heat stress. Feeders who use the Sure Champ Extreme daily may add Climate Control Gel on especially hot show days or during travel in hot conditions.

Phase Protocols

Weeks 8–6 | Condition Building Phase

Begin if summer temperatures are consistently above 70°F and heat-related intake suppression is observed.

Weeks 5–3 through Weeks 2–1

Continue through hot-weather prep period.

Show Week (Days 5–1)

High-value use window for warm-weather shows — supports gut function when animals are stressed by heat plus travel plus pen changes.

Show Day

Use if animal is off feed or showing low energy due to heat.


Stacking Protocols

Stacks with Sure Champ Extreme — Climate Control provides heat-specific support on top of the Extreme’s daily baseline. Does not replace Sure Champ Extreme; adds to it in high-heat conditions.


Budget Alternatives

  • Electrolyte supplements (Sunglo 4-Sure) — address heat stress from a hydration/electrolyte angle
  • Sure Champ Extreme + extra water access — baseline Amaferm support without heat-specific gel
