Horse feet are so strange. Actually, horse fingers and toes. Most of what you can the horse “leg” is what would be your finger.

With a big beefy nail that looks like horror when born, and smashes and rubs into place in their first day.

If they don’t give you nightmares, you don’t understand how they work.

  When they’re born, they’re called foal slippers.

  But just in general, horse hooves are amazing and so weird. It’s literally if your middle finger was half your leg, and the nail was a huge wraparound thing. Then plus you grew extra keratin on your fingertip like a mega callus from birth. Because why not?

Horses know how the world works, that’s they they’re always giving it the middle finger.
