Forgot to update - farrier came back out last week (2 weeks since the last visit) to check things out and give a little trim. I wasn't there but talked to him that night. He said that we had this thing on the run and that I am doing a great job staying on top of it. He said he was surprised at how much growth there was for 2 weeks but I reminded him that I have Mister on biotin. So hopefully with his hooves growing at a quicker pace, it won't take quite as long for these areas to grow out!
I am only treating once a day at this point (his feet were starting to get almost "chalky" from the bleach treatments). Plus he is still at my grandparents on drier ground than he would be at my place. It's not such a bad thing though. My grandfather is quickly going down hill with dementia so it is good to spend a few minutes each day with him. And my grandmother (who is 86 and was the one responsible for my love of horses) is loving having him right outside her window. She feeds him for me every morning so I don't have to come out twice a day.
I'll try to get pictures after the next farrier visit (probably sometime late next week or early the following week) so we can look at the progress.
