Long story short does anybody know of a recipe I can just make at home quick and easy for a homemade hoof oil/conditioner?
My mare's front right is chipping ever so slightly. She threw a shoe over the holidays and I did have the farrier scheduled along with one of the staff to hold her for me during the day, then later on the night before the farrier was to come out my mare had a case of colic resulting in a vet call and a shot of benamine, as well as 4 hours of monitoring and on and off walking. Anyway! I ended up canceling the farrier for the following morning and since it was the holidays the farrier was either booked or not available, along with staff being off for the holidays we just could not book a day. My mare cannot go without shoes, so that sort of sucked! I already have my farrier booked for an all around shoeing & trim for a few days from now so that's already taken care of I suppose.
Anyhow, I have searched and searched out local tack shop online (which isn't even open until 2 days from now, so that doesn't help me :lol and they simply do not have hoof oil? Can I just make some? I tried googling it and I guess some people do, however I could not find a very reliable recipe.
Thanks in advance! =)
