Have recently started using Biotin to help with my mare’s thin soles, which had softened and bruised in the constant wet weather. It’s too early to see a difference yet, but my mare eats it readily in her feed and in time, I am hopeful of seeing better hoof quality.

Re-ordered as seems to be improving hoof quality. Economical and palatable.

Early days but good to find a simple biotin product only.

My horse had an abscess which has left her with a proud sole when trimmed.  My vet advised using biotin to help the growth of her hooves.  Feedmark's nutritionist suggested Biotin 15 which was reasonably priced and arrived very quickly.  it will take a while to see an improvement but I am hopeful.

I have not started to feed the biotin but, as a Feedmark supplement, I expect it to be palatable and good quality. I will start to include it in my horse`s feed in the next couple of weeks when I change to his winter ration.
The biotin arrived in good condition and in its notified timescale.

Got a very food picky horse and he eats this up without hesitating. It's also much more cost effective than other rival products

Used for it for a few years then had taken my two horses off it for a period of time.  However I started to notice their feet just weren’t as good so I’ve put them back on it.  It’s definitely a supplement I will continue to use as it definitely makes a big difference. Thanks 😊

Supplementing the diet with Biotin to help support healthy hoof growth is one way to approach the problem of poor quality hoof horn. Another way is to make sure you are adding the right blend of all the nutrients for healthy hooves.

If your horse has poor shoe retention, brittle, crumbling or cracked hooves or slow hoof growth, Feedmark's Hardy Hoof™ added to the diet will make sure you are adding Biotin plus the other nutrients that help with healthy hoof growth. These ingredients include Copper, Zinc, Calcium, DL- Methionine, Lysine and Yeast. Remember that it takes approximately 9 months for the new hoof horn to grow from the coronary band down to the weight-bearing surface. So, hoof supplements such as Biotin15 and Hardy Hoof™ should be fed daily over the long-term.

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

Biotin 15 is a complementary feeding stuff for equine animals. Feedmark uses nothing in the formulation of this product that contravenes competition rules.

Nutrition Information

Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin which is naturally occurring in a horse’s diet, and is synthesised by intestinal microbes.  Horses with poor hoof quality may require additional vitamins, minerals and amino acids to support good hoof horn growth.  One of the nutrients that helps support good hoof health in horses with poor feet is Biotin.  Feedmark’s Biotin15 provides 15mg per 5ml scoop. 

Composition

Brewers yeast, Calcium Carbonate.

Additives

How much Biotin is provided per scoop?

Each 5ml scoop provides 15mg of Biotin. You can feed twice this recommendation to provide 30mg of Bioin which is the recommended intake for horses with poor hoof quality. 

 

Is this supplement as effective as Hardy Hoof? 

Biotin 15 is a cost effective way to support your horses hoof growth, but if your horse's hooves are in poor condition then we would recommend using Hardy Hoof.
