Hi! I was wondering what I should get for a foaling first aid kit? I know Iodine? I don't know what else, except for scissors/knife. Any Ideas? Thanks! Elena
Elena, I copied this for myself a couple of weeks ago. It is from someone else's post so I can't take credit: I have all my stuff in a backpack on the wall by the barn door. It includes.. two towels Pro-biotics Iodine/medicine bottle( for dipping the cord) enimas vet wrap suction bulb sharp rounded scissors/knife camera exam goves(the ones that go over your elbow, here is a hint from my vet, turn them inside out so that the seam does not rub on the mares soft tissues but is touching YOUR arm instead, this is what he does too) K-Y jelly Blessed is the Broodmare STAYS at my table in the barn as its always there no matter what!! adn a large WISKEY BOTTLE..heheheheLOL just joking there,,
