Fractured splint bone recovery

[Morrigan_Lady]

For those who have had a horse with a fractured splint bone, how long was it till you started jumping again?

Haven't jumped since. But he's a dressage horse so I decided its not really necessary. Once horse is fully back in work and has been conditioned properly no reason not to start jumping as normal. The good thing about a fractured splint bone is once they are healed they are actually very strong.
