[AlpacaTalk] RE: Odd Injury
<<My first thought is fighting teeth. They are extremely sharp and
dangerous. And, they continue to grow, so they need to be checked at
least yearly and trimmed as needed.

I wondered about that possibility Heather, but I have never seen these 2
come anywhere close to mixing it up that severely. Could they have had
such a terrible fight in the night and still be acting normal and
hanging around together by the next morning?
And the stud male is much smaller than the gelding, I wouldn't think
*he* would be the one to inflict the damage but vice versa.
And if the injury was inflicted by the stud male, then what happened to
the duck?
I have become obsessed with trying to figure out what happened. Can't
sleep at night picturing a bobcat coming over the fence for its next meal.
Going out to change the "diaper" and check on the wound; it rained all
day yesterday and I couldn't get it checked.
Just praying it is not infected,
Janice
