Possible fracture?
#4
Goats dont tend to swell much when they break a leg. But from what you describe Id say its broken. Without knowing how and the right materials and the rain would be kinda tough to do a splint. The main thing with a goat is after its set right, your splint will need to extend past the toes. So when he puts pressure on it, that pressure is transferred up on the leg past the break. We have used 2" pvc cut in half long ways to achieve this. Should have a wrap under neath the pvc to protect the leg from rubs and then attach the pvc with more vet wrap. You can put score marks in the pvc to give the vet wrap something to grab onto so it doesnt slide up the leg.
