Rooster in the bathtub! Splashin' round with glee!

Poor guy has swollen toes. I'm letting him stand in water that has epsom salts in it. Then I'm gonna clean up the wounds and put some salve on him. He already lost part of a toe.

I'm charging the batteries in my camera. Hopefully I get them charged in time to take a pic.

Camera still isn't working, but I'll post what I did. He stood in the tub for about 20 minutes in epsom salts. The feet were nice and clean when I went back in there. He's a very laid back roo, so had no problems handling him. He's just huge!

One of his toenails was about to fall off, so I took kitchen sheers and snipped it off. There was a bit of bleeding, so I dipped it in soapy water. Then rinsed that off, sprayed it good with bactine, then dipped it in cornstarch to stop the bleeding. Then I put some salve on a gauze pad, sat it on there, and wrapped it in vet wrap. He can hobble around on it. I put him downstairs in the garage for now. I'll take him some yogurt later.

He stayed pretty calm. I don't think he had much feeling in the toe I cut off. The barely flinched.
