Last Thursday, we used White Lightning and vinegar to treat two of the donkeys' infected hooves. They had fungal infections which caused holes in their hooves to develop. This happened to them due to standing on the muddy ground and wet grass too long. This infection causes there hoofs to soften and is very painful for them when walking. This causes them to limp and hinders their daily life.
To remove this infection we had to first clean the dirt out of their hooves. We did this with a hoof pick. This took two people to do because one person had to hold the donkeys still while the other cleaned the hoof. We then put a mixture of White Lightning and vinegar in a plastic bag. This mixture had equal parts White Lightning and vinegar. We than put each infected hoof a bag of the mixture. let it soak for as long as the donkeys would keep it on, which was around twenty minutes.
