Title: Hoof shears
Post by: Lesley Silvester on June 17, 2014, 04:37:18 pm

Can anyone recommend a really good type of hoof shears, please? Mine are getting very blunt but I have had them a number of years now and they weren't very expensive.

Mytie Lite.................very easy to handle and can be straight blades or offset.   I prefer the offset for goats.

I also use the Myti -lite ones, angled blades. Fit better in my hand than any big shears, and good for kid/goatling hooves.

Another vote for myti-lite angled ones.

Looks like it's MY-lite shears then. Thank you.
