The amount of oiling or 'greasing' a horses hooves will need will vary according to the conditions it lives in. Some horses may need it weekly, while others only during the wetter or drier seasons, it really just depends and it would be best to consult a equine farrier or equine veterinarian for the best answer. Keep in mind that the color of a horses hooves in no way affect how often they need maintenance.

I would highly recommend it. Think about when your fingernails are chipped and you don't clip them. That's how it usually is for horses. The hoof moisturizer fills in cracks and makes their hooves stronger. It's like using lotion.
