I've got so much
respect for Joey's Mom and all of the rest of you who have been working so hard to save your little babies. I just get all the laundry done up and the pens changed and the babies fed and the momma fed, and the poops outside picked up.... and my family has the nerve to want dinner???
Yesterday, after my little stud was bred with a very nice and cooperative little female, he couldn't get his little (big) penis back in the prepuce (skin). He went around for 2 hours and all the lubricant and attempts by us didn't change things. He was swollen and looked like he had a bright red balloon stuck to his stomach.
Well you've heard the commercials about a 4 hour errection and getting to the doctor? So off to the vet we went. We were the joke of the hospital. The techs drew straws to see who was going to take us, and there was a lot of laughter. Poor Jersey had lost all of his dignity!
So here is the deal. If this happens to you and lubricant and pulling the skin doesn't do the trick -- pour granulated sugar on it. Within 30 minutes it will draw the moisture out of the penis and go back to normal. Apparently there is no lasting affect or harm -- IT JUST MAKES SYRUP!!! (EWWWWWWW!)
No wonder I'm a grumpy butt.
