If you wanted to feed supplements but also make sure it had ingredients that helped the hoof what would you get? Kombat Boot or pPerformance One that has biotin in it?

Here are the 7 necessary ingredients it takes to make a difference in the strength of hoof ... notice I did not say makes the hoof faster growing which none of the hoof supplements can do. ...
Biotin, Methionine, Zinc, Copper, Manganese, Calcium and Lysine ..... all of these combine and react off of each other to make each one work ... leave out the Methionine or Biotin and neither works etc etc ..
Here is a chart that shows the amount of each of the above plus any extra ingredients that I keep in my horse feed computer file ......
FARRIERS FORMULA and FARRIERS MAGIC are the ones I have used on race horses with blown sidewalls from ripping shoes off. These two will also put the shine on a horses hair ....
Both are excellent and MAGIC has the best prices and has a little more uumph added to it .......
You know to do any good you need to be thinking on using whatever for 10-12 months for hoof to grow out... the tuffer stronger hoof has to grow from the coronet band downward .. your first signs of new growth will be in 2-3 months at coronet band.
What would you get?
