Wood pellets and sole thickness.
Has anyone had or heard of foot issues - thin soles especially being linked to wood pellet bedding? Two people have suggested may be causing soles to get thinner but changing bedding quite tricky as I've bought in bulk. So interested in views.
One of my horses has much thinner soles than a few years ago. He's out in wet clay field 6-8 hours in winter and on a woodpellet bed 16-18 hours in winter. He's nearly 18 and hacks and schools.
