Brandi1985 · 04-19-2005, 11:35 AM

When I got me horse last year she had really bad hooves. Still they are not as strong or healthy as they should be. I was looking on Valleyvet.com at all there hoof care stuff. I saw one its call Biotin 800 it has 800mg biotin/lb. What do you think? Wht kind of stuff do you guys use? Thanks

Farriers Formula is REALLY good!

I have used the biotin 800, it has the most biotin of the ones I looked at, it work great on Kristay, I used it in combination with Tuff Stuff.
I no longer use it since she is on Manna Senior which has biotin added.

I use Su-Per Biotin. And just yesterday our new farrier said his feet look great despite the last trim he had where the farrier, that we no longer have, totally shod him incorrectly.

My mare went on Farrier's Formula (I think), but I had to take her off rather quickly....she went from needing to be shod every 6 weeks to needing it BADLY every 3 weeks....I couldn't afford it....but it certainly worked well for my mare!
