Title: bald patch on nose
Post by: ThomasR on September 19, 2015, 11:50:26 am

I have got a tup and he has a small bald batch on his nose where he has been rubbing it against the gate. Is there anything i can do to get this hair to regrow as he is a nice tup and I wanted to show him?

Try cornucresan ( think thats how you spell it) cream.
Used it on a shetland ponies back that had rain scold when l rescued him.
Grew back fine  :thumbsup: Will find it at any ' horsey shop '

Might be worth putting something on that bit of gate too or it'll just keep happening

I bought him with the bald patch on they said they would have shown him but he rubbed against a gate as he is friendly.  Would I have to apply the corsnucresan cream daily or is it just a once of? This is a pic of the bald spot.
