Best Answer

Hock (wine), a type of wine; Hock (zoology), part of an animal's leg; Ham hock, the end of a smoked ham. OR Hock; a part of a horse. A hock is a joint made up of many smaller bones. The strength of the hocks are very important as this is the most active joint in the horse hind legs. Poorly conformed hocks may make the horse susceptible to break down if the horse is worked very hard. the part on a chicken at the top of its head that is red
