Well that was what I thought but I am not so sure anymore as my horses live a very good diet, good environment, good trim life. See here at www.performancebarefoot.co.uk

I shall report back if it solves my problem, if not I shall keep searching.

Is there something else missing - essential fatty acids, adequate protein? Can you describe the abscessing? Solar abscess or coming out at the coronary band (assuming you mean hoof abscess)? What about the skin condition? Is it all horses? If not - can you identify a common denominator?
