My horse has no shoes in the winter however she gets this ice build up
around the
inside edge of her hooves. <snip> I was
wondering if any one knows how to get rid of the ice so shes not beeing
ridden on stilts!
*************************************
A former barn goddess told me that it became much
easier to knock the snowballs out of my gelding's shod feet after I began
putting venice turpentine on his soles. And I found that, when we were
working in the snow, the snowballs would just fly off his feet.
Of course, if you don't keep the venice turpentine
in a heated place, it will be next to impossible to paint it on your
horse's soles. <BG>
