The mare gets thrush also, going to try it on her today.nothing as nasty as Sam's tho! Can take after pics if anyone is interested I may be able to find a before pic in my archives. Thrushbuster and tomorrow was keeping it somewhat under control, but darn it is GONE. I'm not kidding when I say the whole hoof pick would fit in there and then some, the black tarry stuff coming out of there was very gross. I looked at Sam's hooves this morning and there is not a trace of thrush anywhere, his CG's even seemed to have filled in. says this is OK to use, it definitely is my new treatment of choice One time I wish I would have taken before and after pics. I'll see how it works, just wanted to make sure it was a "do no harm" and if I don't have to use thrushbuster$$$$ that would be great.even tho it works better than anything else I have tried.so far It has been very dry here, but he stands in poop and pee on purpose it seems, and his hoof is much less than optimal. It certainly should be drying! Sam has very deep crevices in his CG's. I usually use thrush buster or tomorrow, I didn't have either around so thought I'd give this a whirl. My concern with the Blu Kote would be now what if you go back to another product and is it safe to mix the 2? Just my 2 cents since I was just reading about diseased frogs lately!

In case of serious burns or deep wounds, consult a veterinarian. Treats fungus infections, surface wounds, cuts, galls, chafes, abrasions, moist lesions, itchy fungus, eczema and sores. Here are the ingredients, would it make sense to use this or is there too much alcohol in it? $5 Sodium Propionate, Gentian Violet, Acriflavine, In A Special Base Of Water, Urea, Glycerine, Isopropyl Alcohol 47% By Volume.Fast drying antiseptic and fungicidal aerosol spray for surface wounds, abrasions and ringworm. A can would last forever and at $5 the cheapest thing I could use. Was about as easy as anything I have used before. I sprayed it in and it really does get in all the cracks and crevices very well. I decided to try the Blu-Kote after reading the ingredients I thought it actually sounded OK for it, after all it is for bacterial and fungus infections. I trimmed his hooves this morning and his thrush is back, unfortunately I am out of everything I use to treat thrush around here. Sam has thrush I'm sure due to his poor hooves, and he insists on standing on any pile of poop or pee he can find. The parent article and menus are available on the navigation menu below:ĭr.O.
