When I woke up yesterday I thought he was dead. He was on his back and not moving. I went to take him out and he jerked a bit. I decided to leave him and see what happened.

I got a call back from Bob at Pro Products and he said that the hog was showing signs of inhalation and symptoms usually last 2-3 days if it is not a bad OD. I don't know how it happened at all, so it couldn't have been too bad.

I came home last night and he was back on his belly, but still twitching a bit. As of right now, he looks to be calm and OK. I was going to give it another day before I let you guys know what is going on, but believe it or not he may be alright.

I find it hard to believe because I have never seen anything so disturbing. If I wasn't such a wuss I would have put him down, but after Bob's message and what I am seeing as of today, I'm glad I didn't.

Thanks for keeping up
Jeremy

Thats great to hear, hopefully he wont have any permanent damage. That stuff is pretty hard on their livers, as it filters the permethrin from the blood. But hopefully he will make a full recovery.
Keep us posted
