Just looking for some ideas here. My friend's mare's hind fetlocks swell up most days while she is in her pen. She gets out every day for either a turn out, lunge, or riding (so plently of exercise) and she is kept in a 12X24 pen. (No full turnout aval. this is the largest area). She isn't the type that moves around a lot. Just kind of stands the whole entire day and with the heat leatly her hind fetlocks are really stocking up big time, even to the point of it causeing her lamness. We hand walk her for about 20 mins when they are that bad and she works out of it. If we put her in standing wraps, she is fine the next day. My question is, is there any feed thorough supplement we can give her for it? My friend isn't a fan of standing wraps daily, but we have to get a handle on the swelling. Any ideas let me know!
