This foot belongs to Rocky, my daughter's new pony we got 6 months ago, I talk about him to many of my clients.
I'm pleased to see the dietary changes I made are now showing nicely in all his feet.
The event lines were all the way from top to bottom and now they're just on the lower half, growing out nicely.
Rocky has daily bucket feed of
✅ Simple Systems Haycare
(No bi products, no fillers, no preservatives, no inflammatory ingredients like soy or alfalfa, no pectins, no ingredients that I can't recognise or pronounce and have no clue what they are!)
✅ Progressive Earth Pro Balance Basic
(Provides everything he needs with selenium in the inorganic form, ideally we want to feed all minerals in the inorganic form but especially selenium - it is now believed that feeding organic selenium can lead to a significant accumulation of selenium in tissues, potentially resulting in chronic, subclinical poisoning.)
✅ Calming herbal mix
(He's a bit of a nervous chap and the move really unsettled him at first, but I do think shortly I'll move onto a seasonal herbal mix).
✅ Pink salt
He also has ad-lib hay (not haylage!) fed in haynets on a grass track system, where the grass is very minimal indeed, surrounded by hedgerows to browse from.
