Tom with swollen waddle

indeed, even with a ruptured air sac, toms will continue to gulp air to fill them. They are not bright when it comes to this, so he could end up with air all over. As long as you have a place for it to escape, he will eventually heal. Definately keep an eye out for infection.
 
Well I should have given an update sooner, but any how we kept him in a separate pen while he healed. About a week later we let him back into the flock and he has been doing just fine. We never did give him any antibiotics, and he did not seem to have any kind of infection. Thank for the advice, I really appreciate it.
