Jess had another abscess, no bother at the time (I'm guessing it was at least 8 weeks ago assuming its grown down from the coronet), I'd noticed a flappy bit of periople growing down with her foot, so ignored it but picked it a couple of weeks ago to find a split under it from an abscess exit.
The split has now started cracking down the hoof (90 degrees from the original split) and I'm a little concerned we are going to loose the entire heel will call the farrier tomorrow and see if putting shoes on might take the strain off it until it grows out, we've only just grown out the last ones!
