It has been 4 days since Daryl got his first Ivermectin treatment and he is still doing fabulous!! His skin is looking so good now and he only has one small piece of scab left to fall off. His next treatment is in 3 days and I can't wait to get him in there and show her how much he has healed! She said she doesn't ever get small critter patients and she fell in love with Daryl! Even after his treatment she held him and petted him for about 30 minutes. She said she thinks she is going to look into getting one herself!
I also think he is going through a growing spurt or something because he is eating so much lately! He has always ate good but lately he constantly wants food! The place I got him from was giving him some greens here and there but I give him his spring mix every day and also other things that I switch up every day such as carrots, grapes, bell peppers, ect. He loves it all! Today he had his spring mix and some carrots and 2 brussel sprout leaves. Tomorrow will be spring mix and grapes. He always has a dish of pellets and a pile of hay for him as well.
I have noticed he is gaining a little weight since I got him! Not unhealthy weight, but when I got him he was much smaller than his brother who was in the cage with him and he was very light but now hes getting heavier and I can just tell he is healthier now than he was then.
The weather is SLOWLY getting warmer here and I can't wait for it to get a little warmer so I can take him out to see some grass and fresh air! I have a feeling he is going to love it outside!
Sounds like he is doing better. It's all that extra love you give him helps him heal quicker. My boys paws are crossed for him.
