Eagles Nest · 07-10-2008, 08:20 PM

I'm slipping in my middle age - got 12 out of the 25. Granted that's supposed to be better than average but I've always been good at spotting lameness and hoof problems, and how I hate being wrong....there were some pretty scary looking hoofs pictured on that test - pity the poor horses that they belong to.

BornToRide · 07-10-2008, 10:29 PM

Uhm....6 out of 25...
I think I need to be studying

14 out of 25. But one hoof had alot more going on that overlaid bars - so to me that's not fair!

Well I don't feel so bad now I only got 10 out of 25. I missed almost all the inside the hoof things like which ligament is in the hoof.

short_kid · 07-11-2008, 09:13 AM

Nothing like a test to show how much you don't know. I only got 4 correct.

**taelesean** · 07-11-2008, 09:31 AM

WOOO-WOOO!

The only one I missed was the abcessing one - I've never seen an abcess, or a picture of one that looked like that, and that foot just looked weird!

Yea after it said it was an abcess I could see the discoloration on the hoof on the right heel area but before that

. Oh well I guess I need to hit the books.
