What to put in hoofs to stop snow balling up?

[Dottie]

As title really. What do people use to stop there horses walking around in stilettos!

Not tried it, but I heard vaseline is good. Or just take all their shoes off

we used event grease today! found an unused unwanted tub and thought we'd give it ago - worked brilliantly

We've used vaseline tonight for ours that are out. Anything greasy should do the trick.

I used olive oil yesterday as I have run out of everything else, I put it inside the hoof to stop the snow balling up... it worked great, I also rubbed it up the leg to keep his legs waterproof and stop the mud fever starting (hopefully!)
