Oh man.
yesterday someone dumped this gosling at our local lake. He has a severed foot! The wound is basically healed over, but it will need serious maintenance for a while. I brought him home gave him a clean bath, and dry bedding and he is resting quite comfortably.
I would like some advice on treating this wound. It doesn't seem to be infected, and it's not warm to the touch. My aunt is a vet, and yes I am going to be following her advice... but she doesn't specialize in poultry so I would like some goose people to chime in too! I am a duck person so this guy is a first for me.. not to mention the injury!
