I have been having no prob keeping the hooves well trimmed on my goats.
The only problem is not the hoof, its the heels. Those soft heels grow over fast.
Thats were I have the most probs, keeping the heels trimmed down.
How much heel can be cut off at a time?
I am always worried of making them bleed and I cut to little most of the time.
I spend most of my time trimming heels compared to the amount of trimming I need to do on the actually hoof walls.
I'm trimming heels every 2 weeks. Hooves about once every 6 weeks.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance.
