Veterinary question.

Posted on 05/10/2009 7:59:35 PM PDT by tacticalogic

What do you do about a sow that's got an acorn stuck on her teat?

It's making her all bloated and ornery, and it doesn't seem to want to let go.

LOL! I know just how she feels. I’ve got an ACORN problem myself.

ACORN sure gets around. I knew they were parasites, but this seems to carrying things a bot to far.

Yep, dreaded Teat tick, looks just like an acorn.
Put a hot cigarette to it and it will drop right off.
Be sure to hold on to sow.

She wasn't until all this started. Now she's got her own shed for the voter ID cards, and her own bin down at the post office.

Slaughter her and have a big ol' BBQ.

Call a Democrat...Bill Clinton, Edwards, Obama...they all have experience on sucking on the teats of sows.

Going to have to restrain the sow and get it out surgically or lubricate it till it comes out. It's a physical removal IMO...first I have ever heard of this. Are you sure its an acorn and not a mass, debris, or abscess?
