After tips and advice as feeding such a potential con/mine field. So new horse:
Veteran horse - 21 years old. Still very fit and active in light to medium work. No ailments or vices. Nothing overheating - hes a sharp Arab, nothing fattening - very much a good doer.
He's mildly athritic - bit clicky and stiff at times but no obvious pain and never lame. Brittle hooves, mane and tail....slow growth and very tufty/dry. Never gets long. Hooves can be cracked at certain times of year.
Just looking for feed/supplements that will support an older boy and keep his joints mobile. Want his name to grow better and hooves less brittle. Any ideas? Feeds that actually WORK - don't want to fork out loads for expensive feed etc that actually so nothing! TIA
