Thank you for this good info.

See thread on palatable copper and zinc. I have 3 horses, two of them PPID both coming 20 and both pintos, one is a sorrel and the other bay. I also have a black mustang coming 8. She is showing signs

Sometimes farrier's tools become a bit dull, as I have experienced, and he complained about rock hard feet. But brand new nippers worked wonders. Perhaps you could purchase the highest quality nippers

Deb, I have been using devil's claw and also Equiox for my arthritic mare. At some point in 2019 there was a shortage of DC and I ran out. A couple of days without DC and she was more sore. The troubl

I just ordered a bag of this Hygain Zero - with free shipping so cost was not too bad. Hasn't come yet. Hoping that mis snicky picky won't turn up her nose.
