8 horses

3 all black- no probs
1 all white- no probs
4 mixed - no probs (2 of the mixed herd did over 1000 miles this season with
no hoof probs.

I do not feed any biotin or other supplements.

Like it has been said before the hooves mirror the ground. My ground is rock
hard granite 99% of the time. So my horses all have rock hard feet. :-)
