Busy day at the Vets.

Let me try this again: shoot, hope it works out!

(how the heck did my post get up there?!)

But really, that doesn't look so good... Hope he's ok.

Things are not particularly bad/critical. The infection is localized and not spreading.
I'll start with irrigating the infected area out with beta-dine using a irrigation syringe. I also think I will get this guy a shot of Baytril.
Hopefully hitting this infection from inside and out.

What about leaving the wound open and actually packing it with idodine soaked strips? is that something that would be feasible?

If not, I'm thinking that your idea is the best chance of healing this up. The baytril should help with general immune support but it does sound like keeping it open and flushed with idodine so it can heal from the inside out, is about the only thing that will work. Good luck.
