That entire thing was scab that had callused and was necrotic. I had to soften it with water every day to eventually pry it off. So, basically the destroyed tissue died and fell off and new healthy tissue replaced it.....it is hard to explain.

He walks just fine! A SMALL hobble.. but overall better than expected!

Hobart is doing great! He is in his forever home and has a loving family and a goose partner to spend his life with! As you can see the foot that was once so horrible has healed nicely!!! This is so amazing.

Oh guys! I'm sorry I've been slow at responding! Hobart found a home! He moved last night to a wonderful safe home with a friend of mine that adores him! My friend and his wife live on a ranch with their elderly parents and were already in the process of adopting geese! They fell in love...

Ok!! So Hobart has found a forever home! He will stay with me until treatment is finished and then move in with his new family! I need help locating someone with a gosling that can be his forever companion. I'd like to get him a friend ASAP so they know each other before the move. That way...

Urg. I just did a dressing change and noticed an area under Hobarts wing that was scabbed and tender. I went to open the bluekote and "FLAP!"...bottle spills all over my hands face legs.... Not to mention Hobart. Is there any thing I should be concerned with regarding bluekote overload? We...

Gotta be cooler than the pine shavings ontop of a tarp... On top of concrete... It's a covered patio so should be better than direct sun

Nope, not sure if he is a boy or a girl.....but definitely a Hobart. I have been told he is most likely an Embden...but I have no idea. I am going to try making one of these water bags for his area for him to cool off on if it gets to be too hot. It is made of plastic sheeting sealed...

OH, NO NO NO, HEAVENS NO HE'S NOT IN A SHED! That made my stomach hurt just thinking about it! We live in Texas... its already up into the 90's here! I can barely stand being outside so i know its gotta be hot with all that downy feather coverage. He is on our covered patio. We have a...

He pants a lot..when i am at home i am constantly changing out ice packs under his bedding and I keep fans on him at all time. When i am at work my neighbors come around and do it! I leave a cooler with Ice cubes with frozen peas, and fruits in them so they can toss them into a bowl of water...

Thanks for all of your kind words and advice! He's doing much better tonight! I started playing classical music for him while I change bandaged and re-dress the wounds. It makes it easier on both of us! He also had a house call from his vet to make sure things were looking good. He can...

Tonight may be a rough night. They needed to removed all of the scabs on both wounds. Only a portion of the foot scab could be removed. He's on antibiotics and anti inflamatory medications. I also have to give him a treatment twice a day that involves spraying water directly into the wounds...

Here is a streaming camera on Hobart. I am taking him to the vet this afternoon, but this is the set up i have while he is recovering. He has a mirror to chat with, and he can see our other ducks from his area. I don't want to leave him alone with my ducks during the day just yet. Im still...

At the moment I just want Hobart to have a clean bill of health. I want him to ultimately be happy.. but one step at a time....literally, for Hobart.
