Graphic pics from clutch 3

Great looking clutch by the way. I'm so happy the little one is doing well. Great job!:)

Great op job , I really appreciate when people post threads like this because I feel people that are new to breeding or that are considering breeding need to see this side of the business and that its not all glitz and glitter , thank you for posting and again great job!

Wow, that's pretty amazing. How did you know what to do? I don't think I could have performed surgery in the same situation, I would probably have to call my vet and have them do it.

Great job! I haven't had to do major surgery like that yet but I've had to stuff intestine back into a female I kept out of last years clutch. It healed perfectly with no issues or helper stitches! It always makes me happy when people save the little guys instead of culling them. For a newborn running to the vet is often much more stressful and some vets automatically think to euthanize. Sometimes the best thing to do is keep a level head and sew the little buggers up! Congrats on the successful op! Great job

I am glad she is doing good for you... Please keep us posted...

Wow! Excellent job. :) :gj: :gj::gj::gj: :)

Actually we have a box of surgical sutures. It had at one time 12 individual Chromic Gut absorbable thread sutures. 3.0 metric 27inches. The needles are 3/8 circular and pre-threaded. It has actually come in pretty handy and has been used a few times. You can actually order them online like on ebay around $10 or so.
You can actually just use regular needles and thread also. I believe that RD used just regular thread in his video.

Thanks for the comment. :D

Good luck with that little girl! I hope she pulls through, she's beautiful!

awesome work! Hope the little fellow will make it... please post more of it development.

Oh, man. I had to get stitches once and it did NOT feel good. Poor baby :(
