I pay £40 and I did wonder if it was a fair price for probably less than 10 mins. I haven't had any bother with my boys feet so happy now after reading posts. Thanks guys.

I have seen this advertised, has anyone tried it?

How much are farriers charging on average to trim horses feet in Scotland

I contacted Rowan and Barbery for advice and they didn't advise adding anything to the mash but I do soak it with sugar beet water. Pink Powder just a thought. / another option, desperation!!

Hi there I'm thinking of buying Pink Powder to give my 29 year old thoroughbred a boost. He is on Rowan and Barbery mash, full daily dose and haylage. He also has access to grass. He is still a bit ribby. I can't realistically feed him any more than he gets so would Pink Powder help?

Hi there, you are maybe doing all this already. I would advise a very strict regular routine even just grooming same stuff each time. Calm and slow. Feed before and after just small amounts. Maybe try short times at first. Sometimes it can be simply your horse is bored and then has something to...

My horse on this mash and has been getting full scoop twice a day. Advised to up to 3 scoops daily but in 2 feeds. Is this not overload for him, he seems to eat it all and doing ok. Still a bit ribby though.

I'm undecided about rugging up my horse. He's a good doer, keeps condition well and solidly built. But... He is 28 years old. He lives out in a 7 acre field and is fed twice a day. Its supposed to get quite cold in next few days which is why I'm not sure.

Thank you. I have been able to look them over and they don't seem to have grown much and I can't see any real issues. Obviously the farrier will be able to see properly.

Thank you for your very sensible reply, now I'm sorry I posted in the first place.

Thank you.

I have been ill and unable to cope with a farrier visit so my horses feet not been trimmed for 6 months. Will they be ok?

You are wrong and actually rude!! I did not imply or suggest anything but obviously you just want an argument so please don't reply again. I am disgusted at this nastiness on what is supposed to be a friendly forum
