Brittle Hooves
Brittle hooves cause the hoof wall to lose its ability to be flexible. This can cause pain to the horse and induce lameness. The dryness creates a situation where the cell structure is very brittle. There is a tendency with hoof movement, for the cells to break the bonds that hold them together, resulting in the hoof wall cracking. The cracking occurs at the weakest point, often around nail holes or up the hoof wall along the keratin fibres that make up the tubules.
