yorkieusa · 08-17-2005, 01:06 PM

Is there some sort of barrier you could put up to prevent those things from crawling into your yard????

Rex'z momma · 08-17-2005, 01:10 PM

no its an enclosed gate the crabs just find ways to get in

the only way to do it is intoxiate the yard which might injure Rex

Poor little guy. Please keep us updated. Rather than taking him to a vet, I think you have done what you can do at this point. Perhaps the vet can give him medication for the pain...

Rex'z momma · 08-17-2005, 01:28 PM

ya now i can put the neosporin without him licking it

. how is hydrocortizon (sp)

My god! That crab is just terrible looking! I would get that self sticking tape and put it on with the Neosporin. I think that would clear him up. Plus, it would keep it from breaking open again.

I was just thinking and wondering if you could use liquid band-aid on them. The kind I use has an antiseptic in it.

suzysmitt · 08-20-2005, 03:06 AM

Poor Rex. I'm sorry this happened to him. I'd keep it clean with peroxide, and add the neosporin sparingly.
