My pony has been using the barefoot additive for two years and is comfortable when hacking out.

Early to tell if this is working properly  but it's palatable and horse likes it. Skin quality has improved since using. Bonus it's all natural ingredients.

I bought this for my unshod horse after he became a little Footy on the hard ground, its a little to early to tell if its helping or not but he licks his bowl clean when I add it !!

Highly palatable. A bit too soon to expect results but judging results on other Feedmark products I am optimistic!

This product has transformed my horses feet. They didn’t grow much before but now they are filed down every six weeks. My blacksmith has noticed the difference as well. I would highly recommend this product. Both for shod and unshod feet.

Too soon to see results but palatable so fingers crossed. I do, however, want to give a shout out to excellent customer service. One bag of Equidermis arrived split and had spilled. Absolutely no quibble and immediately replaced. You don’t get much better service than that 👍

The pony eats it and hopefully in a month his hooves will be looking good

Started our  18 year old Welsh sec A on barefoot formula, because his hooves where chipping and cracking on our track system, he’s been on it just under a year and from month one we definitely noticed a large improvement, he’s got beautiful feet which are strong and healthy, he still careers around as if he’s 4 but his feet aren’t suffering anymore, would definitely recommend, he’s a greasy but fussy eater but he loves it!

It takes approximately 8-12 months for hoof horn to grow from the coronary band to the weight-bearing surface. Feed Barefoot Formula™continuously to support good hoof horn growth.

Feed supplements should be fed according to body weight. Introduce to the horse's diet gradually, splitting between feeds (when applicable).

Unsuitable for pregnant or lactating mares due to the potentially high Iodine content of Seaweed.
