Hi!
I went to check on my animals the other day and noticed that my goose had a stinger/thorn stuck out of his “horn” area and was acting weird. There was a ton of swelling on his right side really affecting his eye and crown and horn area.
So we got it out and noticed it seemed to go down the tiniest bit. The piece looked more like a thorn so we just assumed it was irritated and thought it would just go down overnight since it was only in for about 2 hours. Fast forward the next day and it is swollen up again. And then by the end of yesterday it seemed to be going down again. This morning I just got back in from checking on it and it is swollen up again.
Anyone have any other experiences like this or have any idea what I need to do to help him? It does seem to bother him some as he keeps shaking his head constantly.
I’ve attached pictures from when we found him and then a picture from today, 2 days after incident.
