It's from them lying down and getting up. They are not sore or uncomfortable on the horse, it's almost like a callous that forms on a human. They go away if the ground softens up for a considerable amount of time but that usually doesn't happen lol. Not to go against you HH as I respect your knowledge of barrel horses but in all honesty hock sores are not a big deal. Even less of a big deal for horses that are not in serious work or performing as FTF's horses seem to do (no snarkiness intended here FTF). I think you're horses are gorgeous and although BC does not strike me as the best stud I've seen, he's certainly not the worst and his progeny all appear to be correct and selling. To each their own I figure. Just my two cents
