[QUOTE="DavisBeefmasters, post: 383790, member: 2263"] Please be careful and not use a syringe with any kind of oil into the mouth of that little guy... he will have residual in his mouth, suck it into his lungs where it will collect crud and get pneumonia... ONLY give oils through a tube ...you might try blowing on the tube after insertion... if he coughs... you're in the lungs... ...if you hear bubbles, your in the stomach ...if you're not going to use a stainless tube and are using some sort of flexible tubing, cut off a piece of 12" PVC pipe and clean it to have over the tubing in the little guys mouth so he doesn't bite off the tubing and swallow it (the 12" length is to give your hand something to hold onto while 6" is in the mouth keeping him from chomping it off). ...please be careful if you do this and if you're not sure -- call someone who knows how to do this (a vet or rancher nearby). Good luck to you and the little guy. [/QUOTE]
