My new doeling has a swollen navel.....

[freemotion]

Ha-ha! Thank goodness it is a doeling for so many other reasons, too. I promised myself I would keep a doeling from each doe this time if they each had nice ones, and if Ginger had a nice udder and produced a reasonable amount.

Thanks for the details, I was wondering about the "skipping right out" bit and was going to make it from fabric. Now I will have a use for all the colorful duct tape I bought to make agility jumps for my dog who then blew out his knee...maybe I shoulda taped that up, too!

If it can't be fixed with duct tape or baling twine, it probably can't be fixed...

Hopefully it's just a hernia and not navel ill. 7% iodine is the best for dipping navels. The povidone/betadine isn't strong enough. Good luck with her!
