I went to the coop to make sure everybody was in, and found one of my girls on the roost with a big pool of blood under her, holding her leg up, and blood on her stomach. It was all from her toe but it was a lot. Got her inside and put her in a Epsom salt bath - the picture isn’t great and doesn’t do it justice - it’s basically sliced almost all the way through from the back. Who knows how it happened - I didn’t hear or see any craziness out there today.
Rinsed with hibeclens (sp), slathered neosporin, and wrapped her foot and the toe in gauze and vet wrap. Firm but not too tight.
I had leftover Meloxicam from one of my rabbits and gave her some in yogurt. I don’t have much more than another dose left though. Any other pain killer I could give her when the Meloxicam runs out? My dog had cervical spine surgery recently and I have all sorts of leftovers from him - Gabapentin, methocarbamol, amantadine, carprofin…I can use Google but if anyone has experience with these, let me know please?
