First mini foal, first foal, and we now trim all our minis because the farriers here are not very good. This foal to both of us has looked since birth like her hooves are way too long. She was overdue and well developed. We have lightly trimmed her twice and gave her toes a little squaring, she is 5 weeks now. The vet said she looks normal, his farrier was there and filed a little off. But I need to have some eyes look at my pictures. I think it is my camera software, I can't upload any pictures yet, if someone could do it for me I could email them to you. Really concerned, we file to what looks like her sole, but they look way, way too long. Now she is going through a growth spurt too, so tipping in or out here and there. I just started her on Rejuvenaide paste 0.5cc daily since she is still a little down on the back pasterns, and she has one acre pasture to run around on with mom and two others. She runs around like a little dust devil all the time and our ground is hard clay.
