Henry and booting to turn out?

[PennywithHenry]

Another (probably silly) question from me I'm afraid!

Now Henry's feeling a bit better he's taken to daily 'mad half hour' sessions out in the paddock....thus resulting in him overreaching

Is he ok to be turned out in the overreach boots I bought him? They're soft neoprene ones, and don't seem to rub him...or would the rubber ones be better?

Or is this a bad idea?

Like I say, probably a silly/novicey question....but I've never had the problems that seem to arise with Hens before...and you don't know if you don't ask do you?

I'd rather ask a silly question than second guess and cause an avoidable accident/injury....

Yip its fine to turn out in overreach boots, mine goes out daily in hers. as long as they dont rub its fine

Yes, no problems - both my TBs are out in overreach boots all the times. They are rubber and don't seem to rub but just make sure they fit.

Either are fine BUT you may have to keep replacing them so using cheaper ones makes sense

Thanks you lot....

applechaff-I'll try his 'nice' ones, if he wrecks them I'll either buy cheap ones or ebay bargains lol

At least it's a sign he's feeling better if he's pratting about!

I turn out in neoprene - horse is extremely playful, but they tend to last him about 3-4 months a pair. They are £12 a pair, as he wrecked the expensive woof ones in a week!
