[QUOTE="TCTara, post: 698627, member: 10013"] You may need to force feed her, perhaps a rumen transplant (rumen juice from another animal pumped into her rumen) as antibiotics can change the gut flora. Also, just a thought, I would replace the iodine with perhaps chlorhexadine on the gauze by the bone, as iodine kills the periosteum--if she makes it, you don't need a sequestrum happening. Another trick now being used is honey or sterile sugar in wounds, not sure about touching bone with it though. And if she's down for a couple of days with this, and still not responsive, likely not going to make it no matter. How is she doing now anyway? [/QUOTE]
