Cowboy_Ken said:From here it almost looks like a blood blister or an injury from an impact. As for getting the gut tract working, movement of the limbs is key. If you could get it outside for a walk-a-bout in the sun for awhile then a soak, that should get things moving, gut tract wise. I'd soak often, a couple times a day while having the water level high enough he needs to work to stay up.
Mind you, if he ever seems distressed let some of the water out. And keep a constant eye on him.
