O.k so having just run out of Spillers 'happy hoof' i have decided to give Spice a small scoop of unmolassed speedi beet, a small scoop of high fibre unmolassed chaff and the recommended amount of 'formula 4 feet'. I've never tried her on 'formula 4 feet' but from everything i have read it sounds very good and having looked at the nutritional analysis it certainly looks impressive.
I am aiming to get back on Spice this weekend even if it is just to do some schooling in the arena as her hoof is looking so much better it still needs to grow about 1cm but that should only take 4 weeks and with hoof boots i don't think she'll have any problems.
That reminds me they should be arriving this friday so fingers crossed i can find 4 that fit! I am planning on long reining, lunging and schooling her in them before attempting to hack out in them just to be sure that they fit right. So hopefully i'll get to do this over the weekend.
