: I have read that in cases where the coffin bone has rotated, the prognosis for recovery is quite poor. Does anyone know what is considered significant rotation? My mare rotated 4 degrees in one foot.
Gosh, 4 degrees is nothing if you have the right farrier, vet, diagnosis for the original insult and preventative care. My mare foundered a lot worse than that, and she's sound in full work, course I got exceptionally good advice, eventually. Take care who's advice you follow.
