Too busy outside!

Other than that, I had a gelding with severe sidebone on both fronts and he stayed sound with no issues- other than he whacked himself once and was lame for three days.

Extreme Veteran Posts: 413	Ive talked to several people that had horses with sidebones, they were lame, then they eventually did an MRI to discover a collateral ligament injury. Has anyone had experience such as this?
