What is scurf?

Explanation:
Scurf refers to flakes of dead skin shed from the horse’s skin, often with dried sweat. It’s not fresh sweat, nor is it oil or mud/dirt. Recognizing scurf helps you remove dry skin flakes during grooming and note any skin health issues if the flakes are frequent or heavy.
