Bone & Hoof Supplement
For hoof, bones & joints .1 kg powder in refill packs and tubs

"Our vet says he has never seen such strong new hoof growth" For strong joints this formula is the answer.

Previously called Calsorb. The herbs in this formula are unique in the way that they assist your horse absorb natural Calcium, Magnesium and phosphorus from the diet whilst also containing Biotin. It can thus be useful as a food supplement where strong hooves, bone and cartilage are important. Always consider using when joints are of concern.

A natural form of Biotin in the plant material makes this product particularly valuable for the common weak hoof. If your horse's hooves crack and don't take shoes well you need some supplementation with this unique tropical product. Useful in conjunction with our Seaweed and rosehips for hooves

PRESENTATION: 1Kg packs or tubs

DIRECTIONS: For hoof condition use 2 level 25ml scoops (50gm per day) twice daily for a 500kg horse. It takes 9 mths for hooves to be completely replaced. Thereafter you can maintain horses on 25g daily. For strong bones in growing foals and young horses you can maintain your horse continually on 25gm daily. For horses with joint problems use at 50gm daily for at least three months and reduce as required thereafter.
