Hi Everyone,
When I went into the garden this morning I noticed that my grey goose was sitting very still. When I went outside 10 minutes later, he was still in the same position and when I went out a third time and he was STILL in the same position I suspected that something was wrong.
I went over to him and noticed that he was having difficulty standing up so I checked his foot and pulled out a two inch long needle from a syringe.
I pulled it out, rubbed it with some alcohol and wrapped a very makeshift bandage around it that I cut from a clean dishcloth in the hope that it would keep the worst of anything out of the would, which, while deep, is only a pin prick.
He is clearly in pain and is having trouble walking around. It was lodged pretty deep into his foot.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? I am worried that it may become infected or something. Is there anything else I should be doing? I have to go out to work but I was planning on changing the bandage when I get back later on.
Any advice anyone can give would be greatly appreciated. I am worried for the little guy
