What could these scabs be *pics*

[jessikaGinger]

i pick my horses feet out daily and today i found these little scabs which are sticky/pussy

what on earth could they be? they are just behind her frog if you cant see from the pics

she lives out 24/7 on grass

Either Dew Poisoning or Buttercup Fever (treat as Rain Rot),

My horse had some similar about a day ago, stick some sudacream on and is gone now!

To me it looks as if she has over reached and opened her heel a bit.

 

[jessikaGinger]

she has it on the front and back at one side, im going up now armed with sudocrem salt water and purple spray!

Non horsey dads suggested hibiscrub?

 

[Marydoll]

It might be a bit of mud rash

 

[jessikaGinger]

Thanks guys been and cleaned up hoping its nothing too serious

Hibiscrub (not too strong). Dodgy nail varnish colour - I'm a red gel girl

 

[jessikaGinger]

haha i agree! i picked up my new car today which is grey & wanted them to match, soon regreted it

I have the same right now...mud fever
Sudocrem after disinfecting

 

[Footlights]

My horse has similar on his two white feet today, but more scabby rather than cuts. Couldn't work out whether it was like mud fever (although no mud in field!) or sun burn. Either way have smothered it in sudocream and will keep checking.

Mel has somthing very similar on her nose - I assumed it was a horsefly bite! Sudocrem is a cure-all with UMS (unidentified manky scabs) xx

 

[Footlights]

My horse seems to get a lot of UMS's and will have to start taking shares out in sudocrem soon!

We should rebrand Sudocrem as Horsecrem or Equinecrem and sell it at an extortionate price
