Re: [RC] Turpentine for hooves - Teri

Angie,

 

My farrier suggested I put it on my horse’s hooves when we moved from pure sand lot in Florida to pure lush grass pasture still in Florida.  He told me it does not make a difference when you put it on but when you do make them stand on cement or clean wood for 10 minutes before letting my horse into the pasture.  Your actually wasting your money if you apply and the stuff does not have time to soak in.  He also told me not to put it on the frog or the hoof wall, just the sole.  I have yet to do this but I guess I better start with the rainy season coming here soon.
