Thank youAwesome..They are beautiful...
Miss Hailey is soaking now. I was poking around at her foot before I put her in, and the scab came off! Perfectly healthy tissue underneath, and no blood or oozy bits. I don't see any infection at all left.
After this soak I think I'm going to put her back outside and keep the wrap on for a while longer, until that hole has filled entirely with tissue. I would love to keep her inside for a lot longer, but I'm chopped liver compared to her ducky friends... sigh.
As promised, bandaging step-by-step...

This is how I position the vetwrap to start; right under the back toe, halfway across the web. I am not sure how long it is, I just eyeball a duck-foot sized amount.

Wrap gets continued to the other side and a triangle sized amount pinched shut to allow for the angle change.

Wrap continued to the other side, then pinched shut. I find tweezers work best for making it stick to itself the most.

Does that make any sense?
