Cracked hooves can be caused by a variety of conditions(environmental, genetics, stress). Bottom line usually mineral deficiency. Zinc and Biotin usually help. One helps strengthen the hoof wall and the other helps with hoof wall elasticity. Zinpro is a commercial product for Zinc and Biotin(20mg/cow/day) should be available also. Hope this helps
