Wow! Well done! The sport bottle irrigation is brilliant! I'll remember that one.

Let us know how it goes tomorrow.

I actually would like to see pictures (I'm a nerd).

Yes, post pics, what if this helps someone searching in the future! It could be helpful to see the injuries and how you did it.

Laree get some injectable penicillin for him...the Tylan 50 will treat respiratory infections but not so good for wound infections. Just inject him daily for 3 or 4 days but no more than 4. A grown LF like an orp can have .50 cc so I would give him a full cc... The shot is intramuscular and goes into the muscle.

Good luck with you boy.

I would like to see pictures, please.

Hoping all is well with Sir Fluffs Alot this morning.

And BIG KUDOS to your DH.

Editing pictures now.

Here is the major wound. Pretty sure we are seeing the inside of the crop.

During the stitching:

Afterwards. Loose stitches to allow drainage.

Wow Laree, great job with the Tom. I'm amazed at with all the things you can do.. Hope he heals well.

Gee, I hope the scar doesn't embarrass him.

Oh wait. Chicks dig scars, don't they?

Nice job, Laree and DH of Laree!
