Can"t help with most of what you asked about, but you can save some $$ by buying generic betadine. Wally World carries a store brand that is much cheaper.

I"ve used jeffersequine.com for 20+ years for animal supplies - dogs, cats, horses, livestock. They are about as cheap as it gets. I give the horses triple EFT vaccinations every year and I give them myself. Saves lots of $$. If you have enough horses, you can save even more money by purchasing the 10 dose vial, syringes & needles rather than the single dose shots.

Needles, syringes, vet wrap and various wound treatments are things I keep on hand at all times. They have lots of uses.

If you find an abscess before it blows open, clean the area well with alcohol. Get a syringe and an 18 needle. Gently insert into the "knot" and pull back the plunger on the syringe to drain the puss. You may have to repeat multiple times and over several days. Keep repeating until the area stops filling with puss. By doing this, you prevent the abscess from erupting and having to deal with an open wound.

I"ve done this successfully on both dogs and horses. Just remember to keep everything clean.

One trick to keeping a bandage from sliding off is to wrap in a figure 8 pattern. I"ve never had a bandage wrapped that way get loose and slide off.

Hope this helps.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
