[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1283813, member: 9096"] Hopefully he pulls through it... the only experiences with maggots I've had are around horns.. a dehorned cow that didn't heal in time for fly season, and another that had a gnarled horn and with her habit of sticking her head through the fence, may have caught the wire between her horn and head, pulled, and made an injury for the flies to lay eggs in. The dehorned cow was really bad, and it took months of doctoring (because I wasn't living on the farm I came every weekend or two to treat her, I was the only human that could get within 100 feet of her). The other cow I doused ONCE with Absorbine Ultrashield and she healed up fine on her own after that.. it apparently kills/repels flies for nearly 3 weeks, so it's long enough she could heal up.
