That has to be the most serious wound I've seen short of killing the animal. It really sounds like you are doing everything right except I don't know about bathing it. I was always taught to keep the wound DRY AND CLEAN....(please double check with your vet).

I have had animals that are trouble eaters and will only eat live and only if it has been in there a couple of hours and no one is looking and seeing this picture will definitely make me re-think how I'm feeding the animals. Best of luck but I think there is no way on earth that this wound could completely heal up or close in that short period of time. I would say no less than 6 months and that is about 6 sheds.
