I got a call to help on a starvation case this morning. Needless to say I ended up taking one of the worst yearlings back home. They are all so bad. Lice, fleas, worms.... MATTS of fur, raw spots full of maggots etc. The AC was called MANY times and nothing was done. At any rate our lil guy "Toughy" is now home. The vet was out and we trimmed some off his hooves to get him standing. We made a homemade sling.
Any help would be appreciated. HE is on Electrolytes, Rice Bran oil, Free Balance 12:12, Redcell and beet pulp soaked. Choice grass and Perennial Peanut hay.
Any thoughts on refeeding would be appreciated.
