Episode 208: The Duckling That Almost Lost Her Foot

Today, I tell the story of the little duckling who could - or rather the little duckling who got herself into a predicament that almost resulted in a foot being cut off. Spoiler alert: she still has her foot.

Monday is Labor Day and there will be no show.

Main topic of the Show: The Duckling That Almost Lost Her Foot

Lessons learned

• A towel on the washing machine makes a great first aid table for small animals - saves the back and storing animal first aid in the laundry room was a win
• Do not use blue cote on deep wounds that will have to be stitched
• The story would have been very different had I been alone on the homestead (multiple people=good on the homestead)
• Always carry your phone even on morning rounds
• No matter how hard you try to be a good steward of your livestock - something will go wrong - be mentally ready for it -- and keep basic first aid supplies on hand
• Even when it seems urgent don't be in a hurry on animal first aid
