Soft feet

[Kokopelli]

My boys feet have gone a bit soft, there is no sign of thrush but I feel if I don't so anything now we're going to have a problem. Hee out 24/7 for the first time and I think it's from where he's stood on wet/ damp ground a lot.

His shoes are coming off next week too (fronts only) so want him to be as comfortable as possible.

Is there anything I can do to help? Would bringing him in onto a nice dry bed help during the day?

Hooves adapt to prevailing conditions. Wood chip bed will dry his feet but they will harden and condition by stimulation from hard abrasive surfaces.
