What is Biotin for Horses?
Biotin is an essential B vitamin that plays a crucial role in hoof horn quality and hoof wall strength. Biotin helps improve the overall quality of hooves, enhances hoof hardness, and supports faster growth. Biotin is especially effective for horses with brittle hooves or those struggling with poor hoof health.
In addition to its hoof benefits, biotin is important for energy production, protein metabolism, and maintaining healthy function of the thyroid and adrenal glands.
Forageplus Biotin is a pure biotin supplement that supports horses with a deficiency, improving their hoof growth and overall health. It can be added to your horse’s regular feed or combined with a balancer for additional nutritional support.
How Does Biotin Support Hoof Health?
Biotin is essential for the formation of keratin, the primary protein in hooves. The hoof is over 90% protein, and biotin plays a key role in improving the quality and growth of the hoof horn.
A study conducted at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies in Edinburgh showed that feeding biotin resulted in a 15% increase in hoof growth compared to untreated ponies. This improvement in hoof growth and quality is a direct benefit of biotin supplementation, making it a must-have for horses with poor hoof health.

Having a horse that is in full work and barefoot, it’s always good to add a little biotin to keep his feet in tip top condition, which this supplement does.
It’s also 300 day supply and you feed very little, so doesn’t add a lot of powder to your feed.
Would definitely recommend!

A few years ago, analysis of my horse’s feed showed imbalance and I was advised to drop the hoof supplement, up the balanced feed (a veteran mix), and add pure biotin if I wanted to improve my horse’s hoof quality. I followed the advice and my horse and his feet improved. Now he’s finally retired, I’ve had his shoes off and he’s doing fine. Obviously, I’m very pleased with Forageplus Biotin.
