Re: [RC] [RC] Hoof problems - Laurie Durgin

Wouldn't it be cheaper and simpler to just use parrafin?YOu can get it at art/craft stores or ?Walmarts. Or just get white candles. Those hooof waxes list 'parrafin" because that is what they put in to seal.It isn't going to be harmfu like maybe floor wax(which has parrafin too).
Just rub it on maybe warming in first. Lauire

Subject: [RC]   Hoof problems
Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2003 02:51:43 GMT

My horses hooves have been having problems from splitting from being too wet
not too dry. The wet spring and then having to soak for a stone bruise/abcess
has made matters worse. The vet suggested getting a hoof product that is wax
based to help seal in the moisture and prevent them from absorbing too much
than drying out too much. I keep looking thru the catalogues trying to tell
what product have wax or sealing properties. The cataloges don't list
ingredients and I have no idea which one to get. Most look like they for
moisturizing dry hooves. Any one have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Anna
