Maggots are very effective at healing necrotic skin diseases. We have adapted along with these creatures and it makes sense there are benefits to certain parasites. We are all covered with mites, bacteria, yeast, and democrats. One of them serves no purpose but to destroy.
After a few days I changed the bandages. Inside it was just boiling with maggots. The tissues were clean and pink. I put on new bandages and did so again in four more days. Still bowling with maggots, but now hoof tissue was growing on the bone. After a month the maggots were gone and she had a brand new hoof (a little crooked though). The maggots saved her life and limb.
She went on to have six sets of twins and two sets of triplets after the vet said to put her down. Amazing lesson in my book.
