    It's the same as with corns, 2 weeks is a safe time for him to recover and then the next feeding should be smaller.
    Ok, that's what I figured. Thank you all for confirming. Should I avoid handling him in that 2 week period as well? And would it be beneficial to dust his next meal with Nutribac (probiotic) to help his system get back in check?
